When planning for online or hybrid instruction it's important to focus virtual time on hearing from students (rather than giving directions)! Sharing our thinking is a key component in science and opens up the conversation to all learners #NGSSchat#NGSS@NGSSphenomena
There is not one good reason why an #elementary aged child should miss out on high quality #science instruction. Poverty isn't a reason. Missing skills isn't a reason. Math or reading scores aren't a reason. There. Is. Not. One. #ISaidWhatISaid#ScienceTwitter#EdLeader#NGSS
🥳Job Alert🥳
I'm looking for a part-time video and motion graphics producer to join the @FiveThirtyEight team! For now (as you might suspect) the role will mostly be focused on the 2020 election. Let me know if you have any questions.

Jason Foster's #SciEd social justice unit on ENVIRONMENTAL RACISM involves a local investigation leading to political action. Ss do spatial inquiry of pollution sources, biochem analyses of impacts & evidence-based communication. #NGSSslowchat#NGSSchat

This is so wrong and misguided on so many levels! It saddens me after going through the Learning in Places Summit with so many WA teachers a couple of weeks ago! 🤦♀️😢
I'm hearing accounts of WA districts stating that only math & ELA should be taught across K-5 this year. This will be an equity disaster in the name of equity.
Are people seeing parents protest such narrow-minded attacks on children's intellectual health?

I purchased a shield from this company! https://t.co/5ox6fxkemr I wear glasses that constantly fog up and I don’t want to deal with that for 6 plus hours a day when school resumes.
The Learning in Places team published another 12 frameworks this week—adding to their amazing resource collection. Check them out!
The family & community engagement framework presents a guidance on how to sustain cultural thriving through just partnering.

Great points on language learning from @OkheeLee_ at #NSELA60. I love this @STEMTeachTools that talks about why we shouldn’t front load vocabulary for Ss https://t.co/0O4YHNQIgE
Thinking of @QUeST_LC @CindyLKern as I go through today’s initial activity! Developing Should We questions and initial models. #relevant#NGSS Learning & Being in Places Summit 2020
@CindyLKern@htoothaker13 @meganbang3 Absolutely! I want my whole building to go through this program in September! Excellent way to bring our community of learners back and connect with both in person and distance learners #learninginplace#equity#families
Q2 Terry, PK-5 Science Coach. Didn’t want to lose our Annual Boat Regatta tradition, created a virtual event, students build their own out of recycled materials & had choice of criteria to focus on & Choice on how they shared through Seesaw platform #NGSSslowchat#NGSSchat
#NGSSslowchat began by sharing our anxieties about distance-learning so that we could open up the space for new learning (exemplifying- "the passion for stretching yourself & sticking to it= growth mindset" (CDweck) Here is Q2! #NGSSchat
A 2-year-old's brain develops rapidly, growing twice as many synapses as an adult—so it's important to expose them to rich, well-rounded activities as much as possible.
