Alignment to NJSLS - Science HS-ESS2-1 Develop a model to illustrate how Earth’s internal and surface processes operate at different spatial and temporal scales to form continental and ocean-floor features. Connections to NJSLS - English Language Arts SL.11-12.5 Make strategic use of digital media (e.g., textual, graphical, audio, visual, and interactive elements) in presentations to enhance understanding of findings, reasoning, and evidence and to add interest. Connections to NJSLS - Mathematics MP.2 Reason abstractly and quantitatively. HSN-Q.A.2 Define appropriate quantities for the purpose of descriptive modeling.

Wonders of the Night Sky 30-45 Minutes • Planetarium Program Online | At LSC

Use the current night sky to explore Earth and Space Science concepts. Topics relate to objects visible in the sky on the date of your program and include seasonal constellations and planets, exciting deep-sky objects, and breaking astronomical news. Alignment to NJSLS - Science HS-ESS1-1 Develop a model based on evidence to illustrate the life span of the sun and the role of nuclear fusion in the sun’s core to release energy that eventually reaches Earth in the form of

radiation. HS-ESS1-3 Communicate scientific ideas about the way stars, over their life cycle, produce elements. Connections to NJSLS - English Language Arts SL.11-12.4 Present information, findings and supporting evidence clearly, concisely, and logically. The content, organization, development, and style are appropriate to task, purpose, and audience. Connections to NJSLS - Mathematics MP.2 Reason abstractly and quantitatively. HSN-Q.A.2 Define appropriate quantities for the purpose of descriptive modeling.

ENGINEERING, TECHNOLOGY, AND APPLICATION OF SCIENCE Arduino Circuits 45-60 Minutes Tech & Design Studio Workshop Online | At LSC

Learn about circuitry and how to code for Arduino. This microcontroller is great for beginners but flexible

enough to provide additional challenges for more knowledgeable students. Alignment to NJSLS - Science HS-ETS1-3 Evaluate a solution to a complex real-world problem based on prioritized criteria and trade-offs that account for a range of constraints, including cost, safety, reliability, and aesthetics, as well as possible social, cultural, and environmental impacts. Connections to NJSLS - English Language Arts RST.11-12.9 Synthesize information from a range of sources (e.g., texts, experiments, simulations) into a coherent understanding of a process, phenomenon, or concept, resolving conflicting information when possible. Connections to NJSLS – Mathematics MP.2 Reason abstractly and quantitatively. Alignment to NJSLS - Computer Science and Design Thinking 8.1.12.AP.4 Design and iteratively develop computational artifacts for practical intent, personal expression, or to address a societal issue.

NEW! Digital Animation Series Three 45-Minute Sessions Tech & Design Studio Workshop Online | At LSC | At Your School

Animation is a series of images, each slightly different from the last, shown in sequence. Artists and animators can take a vision and bring it to life. In 45
