The Climate Literacy and Energy Awareness Network (CLEAN) Collection of reviewed educational climate and energy science resources for grades 6-16 has now been aligned with the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS). The CLEAN resources are individually valuable for teachers to supplement their existing curriculum. However, resources can also be organized into NGSS-aligned Earth System Investigations (ESIs) that teachers can use to integrate climate and Earth science into their classes. In this presentation we will describe how to search the CLEAN Collection with an NGSS lens, and the Earth System Investigation framework built from the NGSS Practices. We will also showcase two ESIs, which use that framework, and model the three-dimensional learning advocated for in the NGSS.
