#### **What you get:**

A Student Centered Lesson Planning Checklist Focused on Three Key Lesson Planning Considerations:

- Student Role
- Teacher Role
- Learning Environment

Download the free checklist as a teacher planning tool as a reminder of the elements a student-centered science lesson should contain to drive mastery of the science standards. 

Print a copy to keep in your plan book or on your desk as a reminder to deepen student understanding and curiosity by planning lessons that are three dimensional. Student-centered lessons should create space and a need for critical thinking, hands-on learning, and personal reflection to create a high level of engagement and deeper learning.
