Archive: The Smithsonian’s COVID-19! How Can I protect Myself and Others? Guide, May 11, 2021

For the past year, the Smithsonian Science Education Center’s COVID-19! How Can I Protect Myself and Others? guide has supported young people to learn the public health strategies to keep themselves and their communities safe from COVID-19. To better support US-based educators to bring this important content to their classrooms, the SSEC is offering new NGSS-aligned resources to accompany the COVID-19! guide. Join the SSEC and NSTA as we share these exciting new developments, and answer all your questions.

Learn the basics of the Smithsonian Science for Global Goals COVID-19! How Can I Protect Myself and Others? guide, and how you can use it with students right now. We explore the impact that the previous year has had on students and educators, and the things we can continue to do to keep ourselves and our communities safe from COVID-19.

We invite you to register for upcoming web seminars at NSTA.
