Hello All,
I wanted to share these free K–2 OER PDFs of PhD Science that were recently posted from Great Minds (my employer): https://greatminds.org/resources/products/phd-science-levels-k-2-oer
We made it OER because we know it's tough to find high-quality science materials that is engaging but not overwhelming for K–2, so we wanted everyone to have access.
The first two modules of each grade level are available now. Modules 3 and 4 of each level will be released on a rolling basis over the coming months so you can have access to the full K–2 curriculum and can implement it in time for the 2021–2022 school year.
For those who aren't familiar with PhD Science, it's a student-driven and phenomenon-based curriculum (using authentic phenomena) and is very hands-on. The curriculum is coherent across lesson, modules, and grade levels. Every module incorporates cross-curricular connections (including trade texts and fine art), providing students with additional accessible entry points to the topic of study. Also aligned to NGSS.
Happy to answer any questions that come up!
