This chapter, by Julie A. Luft and Robert Idsardi, shares methods for preparing preservice teachers to uphold the vision of the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS). We begin by discussing bridging practices related to content, adapting lessons, data-driven decisions, and collaborating with colleagues. To illustrate how these practices can be used with preservice teachers, the authors also share examples from their own experience. Ultimately, the goal is not to advocate for specific practices but to promote the idea that those who work with preservice teachers should deliberately engage them in activities aligned with the NGSS. Teacher background information, standards, assessments, references, and resources are provided. This book selection also includes the Table of Contents, Foreword, Preface, Acknowledgments, and Index.
