@NISDFolks @NISDMSScience Folks teachers had an amazing time at the campus retreat with team building games and planning.

@NISDMSScience @NISDFolks Students used their sketchnoting and their knowledge of acids and bases to write their short constructed response and used a rubric to calibrated their writing with each other.

@NISDMSScience @NISDMSScience #thewordisout Students solved a murder mystery using force and acceleration. Such an awesome group of sleuths!!

@NISDMSScience #folksstrong #thewordisout We are brainstorming ways to help each discipline during cross-curricular PD.

@stfleenor @NISDMSScience @NISDFolks #wordisout #folksstrong Questions promote learning by allowing students to think and process content. This is important beacause ss need time to organize their thoughts before sharing.
