"Most people think that it is my job to teach students to be responsible. My job is to teach students to master skills and standards. If a student demonstrates mastery of a concept three weeks after a due date, I do NOT penalize them for lateness." https://t.co/brGFCyyFJp

Our 1st investigation to determine how containers keep stuff from warming or cooling. We had an idea to investigate features of fancy cup system since we knew something was going on to keep our cold drink from warming. Layers? Lid? Material? ⁦@NGSSchat⁩ ⁦@OpenSciEd⁩

[Geralyn Vigliotti @vigliottig]

Eliciting student scientists’ ideas...Which hypothesis do you believe is the closest explanation for why the fancy cup works better than the regular cup at keeping a drink cold? #ngsschat #AmbitiousScienceTeaching ⁦⁦@NGSXproject⁩ ⁦@OpenSciEd⁩

Many schools are starting the hiring process- “If you hire people just because they can do a job, they’ll work for your money. But if you hire people who believe what you believe, they’ll work for you with blood and sweat and tears.”

Continuing our anchoring phenomenon routine...Developing Questions with our Driving Question Board. What do we need to figure out to explain what we observed? #NGSS #NGSSchat ⁦@NGSXproject⁩ ⁦@OfficialNGSS⁩ ⁦@NGSSchat⁩

What is Algebra? “Algebra is power.” @drMi #ATMNE18

In highly abbreviated form: use representations, ask “why?” and expect explanation, embed the math in contexts when possible, honor mistakes.
