NSTA Coronavirus Elementary Lesson Plan and Resources Collection - With the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak in the news every day – and becoming increasingly sensationalized – your students are likely to have questions and concerns about their own health and safety and that of their family and local community. What better place to ask those questions and investigate how the coronavirus works (i.e., how the it makes us sick, how it is spread, how we can protect ourselves) than the science classroom? Review this NSTA collection to find a new elementary science lesson and additional resources for translating the coronavirus (COVID-19) from a news story to a phenomenon-driven, three-dimensional lesson opportunity.
