SEP & CCC Introduction Stations Bundle

Give your students a strong foundation in three-dimensional (3D) learning with this comprehensive NGSS Introduction Stations Bundle for high school science. Designed for grades 9–12, this bundle includes everything you need to introduce the Science & Engineering Practices (SEPs) and Crosscutting Concepts (CCCs)—plus 5 exclusive bonus stations that help students apply both dimensions together in real-world science scenarios.

These stations are perfect for high school science teachers looking to start the year with engaging, inquiry-based learning that aligns with the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS).

What’s Included:

• 42 pages of SEP stations (8 total)
• 47 pages of CCC stations (7 total)
• 27 pages of BONUS stations (5 total) combining an SEP + CCC in each activity
• Total of 20 unique stations, plus built-in differentiation support
• Printable, easy-to-use PDFs – just print and go!
• Teacher differentiation notes for supporting all learners (ELL, below grade level, honors)

Learning Objectives:

Students will:

• Explore and understand all 8 Science & Engineering Practices
• Build connections with all 7 Crosscutting Concepts
• Practice 3-dimensional learning by applying one SEP and one CCC together in context
• Develop skills in inquiry learning, critical thinking, and problem solving

How to Use:

• Back-to-school introduction lessons
• Lab prep or NGSS framework introduction
• Sub plans, early finisher tasks, or group collaboration
• Pre-assessment before graded use of SEPs and CCCs

Stations can be set up at individual tables or rotated through as a full-class activity, and are perfect for establishing classroom norms centered on student-centered, inquiry-driven learning.

Why Teachers Love It:

• Supports NGSS-aligned instruction across science content areas
• Encourages deep understanding through hands-on exploration
• Differentiated and accessible for a wide range of learners
• Seamlessly integrates 3D learning into the start of the year

Start the year with purpose and clarity—this NGSS Introduction Stations Bundle is your go-to resource for helping students understand the how and why of science through the powerful lens of 3-dimensional learning.
