@gosciencego @gretchenmilary @ShelleySpohr @KimPelletier23 OMG!! So cool 😍
Say it louder! Say NO to frontloading! It's not effective. Also TELLING Ss what they are "about to learn" is no way to get students to do any of the intellectual work. People who suggest otherwise don't believe (certain) Ss CAN learn #FiguringOut #BestPractices #ResearchBased
When I think about vocabulary I think about “just in time “ learning. #ngss Context, conceptual experience very important prior to offering the scientific language .
Initial models were under construction these past two days! After teaming up to represent our ideas, we did a gallery walk and are getting ready to investigate our phenomenon 🧐 #ngss #ngsschat #ngssmodel #phenomena #middleschool
The driving question board(s) in room 112 are up and running! We’re investigating the heat and energy transfer behind penguins in the antarctic... check out the amazing questions my scientists are wondering about! #ngss #dqb #iteachsixth #middleschool #ngsschat #science
On our first day together, we discussed what our ideal science class will look like, feel like, sound like, and how we can make it happen! Some of my favorites were confidence, collaboration, experimentation, and supportiveness 💕 #ngssclassroom #pedagogy
Very lucky to have been able to participate in these conversations with a passionate group of science educators!!

@STEMTeachTools @missnoriscience It’s sent!
Inspired by @STEMTeachTools to make talk resource cards to support my students in equitable discussions! I used the prompts from the STT talk resources cards, but made the language more sixth grade friendly and color coded by discussion skills. Can’t wait to use these! #ngss
@missnoriscience @STEMTeachTools The original prompts are on the STT website, but I could email you my middle school-ified version!
Currently GEEKING OUT over the fabulous activities in the @OpenSciEd thermodynamics unit... my mind is spinning with ideas for the fall!
Can’t wait for another great day of learning with fellow CT science teachers!

I thought I knew what I wanted to do in the first days of school... but with everything I learned from @STEMTeachTools, it’s back to the (literal) drawing board! updating with ideas from @WBBCoachSmith @MelanyGronski @CarrieDePetris @DuellingwithSci @CindyLKern and many more!
The last four days of the @STEMTeachTools un-conference stretched my mind with so many ideas for building a classroom culture of equity and productive uncertainty! Many thanks to @philiplbell, @CindyLKern, @QUeST_LC and especially @dtcampbe for the invitation!
5 Tips for Blending The Question Formulation Technique (QFT) with NGSS teachingchannel.org/tch/blog/5-tip…
Indigenous stories about science knowledge are evidence-based and situated in truth and are peer reviewed through the social process--intergenerational accounts inform social and environmental interactions. Camille Callison has done a lot of work around this 2/n #NGSSChat
Observations drive knowledge. Great q from Amy: So, how are NGSS practices (which are often data-drive) blended into diff ways of knowing? Cindy: We can use and hold a lot of models, indigenous or western, in our minds. #NGSSChat 5/n
How do you ensure that indigenous knowledge doesn't get "validated" by "true" (I.e. western) sci knowledge? "You should not negate a model that allows people to successfully navigate the world." Group included @CindyLKern, @dtcampbe, @philiplbell, Nancy, Amy, and me #NGSSChat
