So, maybe I have waited until the last possible minute to start planning for this year. 1 - Bc I didn’t want to have to replan with each new reopening plan. 2 - as a @PLTWorg teacher, I knew I had an awesome framework to lean on and tweak as necessary making it easy. #PLTWproud

PLTW Launch now provides PreK-5 students an unmatched experience, fueled by the three dimensions of science learning, plus unique, problem-based, applied learning, all in one program. We thank @Arconic_Fdn, @chevron, @PPG, & @SunPower for their generous support!
