How do these materials support meeting state and national science education standards?
The goal in developing lessons that accompany the EHP Student Edition is to address as many of the national science education standards as possible over the course of a year. This will allow teachers from a variety of science subjects to incorporate environmental health into their classes, as well as ensure that the standards are being met. Being able to address state standards is also very important. Because this is a national resource, we are unable to align lessons to the science education standards from fifty different states. However, each lesson includes a description of the content and skills addressed so teachers can easily identify what state standards will be met by implementing the lesson.
