Our semester ACT prep class finished reading The Disappearing Spoon last week. To celebrate, we threw a “spoon only” party where everyone brought foods that require spoons. 🥄 📕 @sam_kean

Happy Halloween 🎃 Keeping the Einstein tradition alive one year at a time #chemteacher

As a chemistry teacher, there is just something special about students drawing Lewis dot structures for covalent molecules & then building them with the molecule kits. Learning in progress! 🥰 ⚛️ #chemistry

Taking a “worksheet break” from ionic naming & formula practice by doing a double replacement rxn. 💛 ➕➖ #ionic #chem

I remember my first year teaching (2019 & I teach HS) & a student swore all the time in class. I called home to tell the parents & the mom responded, “ok… and?”

[Daniel Buck, “Youngest Old Man in Ed Reform” @MrDanielBuck]

When did schools collectively decide that it’s acceptable for students to swear in front of teachers?

[Taylor @ChemEdens]

@adamboxer1 I agree 100%. Students need to know how to rearrange any given formula. Especially those with more than 3 variables. 💯

Shout out to our Be You Club & Ms. Edens for representing @ECHS_MNPS at the @MetroSchools Student Leadership Summit! Ss learned how to empower others & foster an environment where every student feels safe, supported, & known. #ECHSLevelUp #HSDualEnrollment #MNPSForAll @ChemEdens

You get creative through the years when your classroom isn’t an actual laboratory! Lighters for the win 🤭

@schmidtim I’m curious- which part are you referencing as not to do? 👀

[Taylor @ChemEdens]

Alchemy lab (separation techniques), surface tension penny lab (scientific method), & using fruit loops to create Bohr models = first month of school complete ✅🥼 #chemistry #chemteacher

FIELD TRIP OPPORTUNITY - OPEN TO ALL GRADE LEVELS! 🚌 👩🏽‍⚕️ @MeharryMedical #ECHSLevelUp #HSDualEnrollment

[Taylor @ChemEdens]

@ReitzChemistry Both! Test corrections of initial test, extra practice worksheet, and then they can do a different version of the test as a retake.

[Taylor @ChemEdens]

It’s officially Year #6! Let’s do this 🫶🏼📝🥼🧪 #chemistry #Teachersof𝕏

[Taylor @ChemEdens]

Bring it on year #6 of teaching! I can’t believe how fast time goes by 🥹

[MNPS Early College HS @ Nashville State @ECHS_MNPS]

Grades 9 & 10 return to ECHS on August 6th. Grades 11 & 12 return on August 26th. It’s time to learn a bit about our stellar faculty & staff 🤓!

Meet Ms. Edens - Teacher of Science 🎉

At the end of the school yr, I give my Ss the opportunity to give advice to my next group of chemistry students coming in. The responses never fail to make me laugh & smile. I include them in a slide during the first day of school called “advice from past students”. #chem #teach
