Education Week: In high schools across Denver, chemistry teachers are working from a new set of lessons. The topic: "Should the United States say yes or no to nuclear power?"
On their way to answering that question, students are asked to learn new scientific vocabulary and concepts, including the difference between nuclear fusion and nuclear fission.
They're also offered Spanish/English cognates, root words, and a strategy for decoding unfamiliar words alongside worksheets on scientific content.
