I love the Short Wave podcast in general, but recently I've found their episodes on the intersection of race and science to be really powerful. This one about anti-racist science education gave me a lot to think about, plus some great resources. https://t.co/irQEKTBHzQ

I love the GOA Designing for Learning: Science course I took over the past week. I totally recommend their courses - so many great, immediately applicable resources and ideas! https://t.co/XBOOcVmwQZ

Q4 I'm going to use the sustainability compass more intentionally #PubPDAsia #PPDsustainability

[Angie Sauer @angsauer]

@toddytd I love the compass, and I need to be better at planning to use it as a routine part of classes.

[Angie Sauer @angsauer]

Q1 we had kids do projects focused on SDG #7 where they choose part of the goal & investigated a solution in the lab. I'd really like to make it connect better to the real world, though, because the lab investigations were pretty limited. #PubPDAsia #ppdsustainability

Sometimes we have to use whatever is nearby to keep our water turbine from splashing us. #middleschool

Ss are revising models to show what they've learned about atomic structure. Thanks @paulandersen for the structure/function model blank!

A4: when you take what you learned in class and use it in another context #pubPDasia

[Angie Sauer @angsauer]

A3: I remember I had to take shop class, and my teacher was missing a finger. We were all real careful with the band saw. #pubPDasia

[Angie Sauer @angsauer]

A2: I'm new at my school, so I'm still getting to know it, but so far I love how supportive it is of my professional learning #pubPDasia

[Angie Sauer @angsauer]

A1: I love thinking about what is going on in students' brains. It's a mystery of what is happening in there, and how can I help them develop their thinking about science. I find it endlessly fascinating #pubPDasia

@PettwayAJ Indeed.

Some student questions about our phenomena this week. It's great to start school up again!

[Angie Sauer @angsauer]

A bigger coffee today to start off this final day of TTI. What a great experience this has been! I will miss this class. @ Colombo Americano Medellín https://t.co/zFpeWCeiIQ

What we learned today, and what we still have questions about in biology class #CNGscience

Such a good point: "an argument is ultimately a process for reaching agreements (or compromise)." #edWebinar with #KQEDlearn

I'm super excited to use this video @TechnologyDoug and I made from our trip to the Ecuadorian Amazon as the phenomenon for my bio class tomorrow! #ngss #CNGscience https://t.co/tJi7vjmunR

I got to be a judge for the nutrition class's Master Chef competition today! A super fun summative assessment! #CNGscience

[Angie Sauer @angsauer]

This morning's takeaway from Andy Shouse: "a teacher's job is to study students to see what they need to move forward" and "science classrooms must enable students to participate in scientific communities" reinforces our work on #ngss #CNGscience
