Tried an idea I found here- Start with S names on stickies. Ss covered their name with their Q. Page filled up in record time and the next page was for overflow! @OpenSciEd @MrsCEastShore @MrsSTEMilford #6thgradescientists #cupfeatures #DQB #distancelearning

My first academic paper was published in Science Education today! Kevin Cherbow, @KateMcNeill6 & I propose 4 key features of NGSS-designed C&I and use those to analyze a commercial unit (spoiler: it did not-so-good) https://onlinelibrary-wiley-com/doi/full/10.1002/sce.21604

We just published the #HTML5 version of Build a Molecule!!! 🧪⚛️🎇

Starting from atoms, see how many molecules you can build. Collect your molecules and view them in 3D. The playground screen supports more than 9000 different molecules!
