Nebraska’s College and Career Ready Standards for Science require key instructional shifts in practice to support student achievement and the promise of the these standards.

Understand the state’s rollout and implementation plan for the new science standards from 2017-2022. Use this timeline to inform your own district’s planning for implementation and professional learning.

An implementation toolkit was developed and provides a variety of resources to serve the outcomes for successful implementation. Use the toolkit and resources linked below to understand best practices for district planning to implement the new science standards.

Ask yourselves:

• How will these resources help districts make quality decisions about instructional materials?
• How will this experience/resource help me expand and improve science teaching and learning?

Stage 1 Resources​ ​- Exploration

Stage 2 Resources – Transition

Stage 3 Resources – Initial Implementation

Stage 4 Resources – Scale Up

How well do you and your team know the science instructional shifts and what that means for instructional materials? Millard Public Schools developed this survey as a pre-assessment that can help all districts to know current strengths and gaps before digging into new materials.
