Q4: Students are more likely to remember what we teach when we engage students in real life scenarios and help them discover the content organically. #curiositymatters2FMSD

[Gabrielle Davis @MsGabPDavis]

@BTMSmediacenter #curiositymatters2FMSD
@BTMSmediacenter I definitely agree with you; I said the exact same thing with students proposing questions (how, what, why), very good ways of sparking curiosity.

[Gabrielle Davis @MsGabPDavis]

@teachNaFo #curiositymatters2FMSD
I definitely agree...you and I are somewhere in the same boat. I am more of the facilitator, just to keep the students within a certain area (choosing topic). Other than that, I allow students to express themselves to find ways to find a solution.

[Gabrielle Davis @MsGabPDavis]

@FACSatBTMS I concur #curiositymatters2FMSD
When students can see the purpose and can relate, students respond differently.

[Gabrielle Davis @MsGabPDavis]

#curiositymatters2FMSD Q6: My personal beliefs about curiosity and learning is that in order for someone to want to learn, they first have to have that curiosity. Questions like what, why, how...are ways to prompt the curiosity factor into wanting to know/learn more.

[Gabrielle Davis @MsGabPDavis]

#curiositymatters2FMSD Q5: I think we are better able to engage students by incorporating what they like/favorites into our lesson. We are still teaching standards/objectives, but also, finding a way to involve what they are familiar with into the concept.

[Gabrielle Davis @MsGabPDavis]

@btmstheatre Yes, exactly!! Using this method allows students to bridge the gap between not knowing and build upon prior knowledge. In science, a lot of what is taught is abstract until students are able to experiement through a lab or activity so using pics, assists greatly.

@NAFOScienceRoc1 Love it! sciencerocks!!

[Gabrielle Davis @MsGabPDavis]

#curiositymatters2FMSD Q4: I believe students are better able to retain information from either a chemical lab/structural lab or a structure that has to be built/made. Allowing students to engage with inquiry based learning, allows students to better retain information.

[Gabrielle Davis @MsGabPDavis]

#curiositymatters2FMSD Q3: The questions that get the most attention in Physical Science (Chem portion) is "how did they come up with that"? or "what elese can be made?" I highlight these questions because students have the impression everything is going to blow up or react.

[Gabrielle Davis @MsGabPDavis]

#curiositymatters2FMSD Q2: I believe Socratic Seminar is very effective because there are no limits to student engagement and learning, With the "respect" factor established, SS will allow students that never participate or ask questions to be/feel apart, without judgement.

[Gabrielle Davis @MsGabPDavis]

#curiositymatters2FMSD A1: Moving to the next level, would allow students to design and find solutions on their own, based off prior knowledge, matierials, and their experiences. Allowing students free will to solve and construct will allow students to explore opportunities.

[Gabrielle Davis @MsGabPDavis]

#curiositymatters2FMSD A1: I believe I am more "guided inquiry" because I believe I guide students to the edge of the pool with the knowledge of swimming to the other side of the pool, but still allowing students to jump in, at will, deciding how to make it successfully.

[Gabrielle Davis @MsGabPDavis]

#FMSDwrites2learn A2: I have already incorporate pictures and videos to incorporate or bridge the gap between what students do not know or have little knowledge about. Pictures, story books, and videos allow students to visualize, grasp, and understand (bridging gap) the topic.

[Gabrielle Davis @MsGabPDavis]

#FMSDwrites2learn...A1: I would use the T-Shirt. Students would use the pieces of a t-shirt (right sleeve for one topic, left sleeve for another topic, pocket for another topic, and use the middle of the shirt to bridge all topics together).

[Gabrielle Davis @MsGabPDavis]

Book I am reading...#MichelleObama Very inspirational.
