I love teaching middle school age students and science 🥰 22 years and counting doing what I love @IHMiddle

Seventh graders organized a game of duck duck goose during FLEX today. I was impressed and had fun just watching them! @IHMiddle

The Mod Squad kicked off 2023–24 with seventh graders today! 🤗 @IHMiddle

Love this acronym for Family STEM ideas!

[dailySTEM Chris Woods @dailystem]

A dad told me that “they’re doing STEM” in his son’s kindergarten class this year

I said that’s great, & I encouraged him to keep doing the hands on stuff at home, that’s #STEM too

He said “oh yeah, my son loves helping me with changing the oil or whatever I’m doing!”

Fun idea for an entrance or exit activity

[edutopia @edutopia]

This game could work with subject-specific vocabulary in any class—science, math, social studies, & more. ✨

[Kelly Hartings @hartingsteach]

Yes!

[TeacherGoals @teachergoals]

This is truth! 🙌

@IHSchools Well deserved!

[Kelly Hartings @hartingsteach]

Learned from and enjoyed hearing IHPS colleagues as they shared about their the inclusion of PBL Lab Sites. @IHSchools

So rewarding to be able to step back & watch meaningful collaboration happen w/o my facilitation. And then to also have to ask Ss to stop working several times in order to make it to the next class/bus on time? Priceless. Ice Box Challenge-which design will win? @IHMiddle

@richardson_edu @conkerHQ @IHSchools Thank you for the lunch and learn today! I learned a couple great new tools to save me time while also keeping students engaged!

[Kelly Hartings @hartingsteach]

@GiftedTawk Teenagers need you to be present in their life just as much as elementary school age children. Your role just looks a little different.

[Kelly Hartings @hartingsteach]

@LaurenGentene Wow! So fun to watch everyone in the spotlight! Impressive.

@stemdaywithgray @dailystem @SarahGrahamPCSD I have looked into a freestanding one through crop king. It has a UV light in the center and can open and close. It can hold 200 plants.

[Kelly Hartings @hartingsteach]

What did we do in science class today? We just played with toys. Well, maybe there was a little science application in describing how energy transfers and transformations allow these toys to work. @IHMiddle

[Kelly Hartings @hartingsteach]

Very proud of how well these seventh grade students prepared for and hosted a Coding activity for the IHSD STEM night. @IHMiddle

[Kelly Hartings @hartingsteach]

@dailystem Love this demo! I use it as part of a series when we study air pressure during our atmosphere currency unit.

[Kelly Hartings @hartingsteach]

@IHMS_AP @LaurenGentene @IHMSMorrison @KJHKnights @SycamoreJrHigh @MMScomets @IHMiddle @MJHS_Goetz @MariemontSchool @LovelandTigers Such a productive session! I feel like I have so many contacts for future partnerships as well as ideas to continue innovating my science teaching practices.

[Kelly Hartings @hartingsteach]

Such a great experience for students today touring several tiny home models at Camp Cedar. They made so many observations to help guide their designs for their client, who they will connect with next week. Thank you for putting this together @brownmath207 @IHMiddle
