CreositySpace

CreositySpace K-5 Science Units Do More Than Just Check Boxes -- Any curriculum can create lesson plans to teach science concepts, but CreositySpace has the power to change how students see themselves using and working with science every day. CreositySpace is a unique inquiry-based, learner-directed NGSS / NYSSLS curriculum that connects ALL K-5 students to science through the stories and innovations of today's young entrepreneurs on the front lines of tackling complex global challenges. Each unit of the 16-unit sequence * Capitalizes on students' natural creativity and curiosity at a time when they ask, "What do I want to do when I grow up?" * Gives students the opportunity to see themselves as part of the STEM community/innovation economy, even if they don't see themselves as a scientist or and engineer, * Introduces authentic relevant experiences, * Integrates science into other subjects like ELA & social studies, and * Engages students in writing, reading, critical thinking & collaboration. CreositySpace designs each unit to give teachers the flexibility to tailor each unit according to the needs of their classroom--and easily incorporate blended learning strategies--while meeting science standards, and to facilitate deeper thinking and understanding around science concepts. The company is headquartered in the Capital Region of New York, with an office in Seattle, WA.
