Student 1 to lab group: If cold air sinks, shouldn’t cold water sink?
Student 2: So when we add hot it should go to the top?
We love when a plan for teaching 6th grade about ocean currents comes together! @AlabamaAchieves@amsti4all@THSRebelsSchool
Mrs. Tolliver’s classes at Thorsby HS are starting to learn about weather and climate. The first step? A lab to determine how different parts of the earth respond to heat. We’ll graph and analyze the data to draw some conclusions! @THSRebelsSchool@AMSTI4all@AlabamaAchieves
My geologist heart was so happy helping with this lesson today. Putting my degree from @uageosci to good use with these future geologists and paleontologists!
We were so happy to be a part of @vhcschools back to school Rebel Camp! We loved sharing about all of the exciting changes to AMSTI science and how to integrate engineering into the standards. We are excited to work with you this year! @AlabamaAchieves@AMSTI4all
Middle school has really upped the amount of math in 7th grade units. When you struggle with some of it, you call in math specialist reinforcements! Thanks for your help Faith and Rachel! @AMSTI4all@AlabamaAchieves
It has been another great week of middle school science training! We cant wait to see what our teachers do in their classrooms next year! @AlabamaAchieves@AMSTI4all@UM_RIEC
Really enjoyed all of these awesome educators I had the pleasure of training in my AMSTI sessions this June and July! Their dedication and enthusiasm made these sessions truly memorable.

It was great to work with Mrs. Tolliver’s 6th graders at Thorsby HS while they learned about the effects of hot and cold on air currents. @THSRebelsSchool@AlabamaAchieves@AMSTI4all
Mrs. Smotherman’s 7th graders at West Blocton MS used chicken wings to explore the structure and function of tendons, ligaments, bones, joints, and muscles. We may have some future surgeons here! @AMSTI4all@hs_adams4
