Gave Ss a quiz on periodic trends and most did poorly. I asked them to take notes during my mini lectures and read and take notes from the online text, but now I'm assuming they did neither. #iteachchem
@everettis1 After using an inquiry based storyline science curriculum for the past 2.5 years, I find the need to return to more DI for content purposes.
@NicholasFerroni I've done this math before with my students when I feel like I'm having to babysit them, except I use $10 an hour, I'd still be stinking rich at that rate. 💲
@MarcusLuther6 Couldn't agree more. Some days a 1/3 of my students are absent due to all the reasons and then my present students expect a "free" or work day. Nope, I'm moving on with my lesson.
@MrDanielBuck I'm considering asking my district for chemistry textbooks and an actual curriculum, I've been making it up for years. I'm curious if students will read them when asked. Their reading comprehension of science text is quite low.
