We did this thing! Thanks @nsta Chicago for giving us encouragement to do our presentation! Thanks to @randiejohnson5 for being a great colleague and thought partner!!
A3: I want to focus on making the CCC language more natural for my students so that they can begin to identify their presence and see the value. #NGSSchat
A2: Digging into a couple of courses focused around supporting SEL inside the classroom. Also, working on ways to further engage students in thoughtful discussion and modeling as well as organizing OpenSciEd unit materials to meet various student needs. #NGSSchat
A3: Sensemaking is not a defined step by step process it takes creative application of ideas from different perspectives. Creativity is what drives new discoveries - I love seeing Ss thought processes come to life. @NGSSchat
In a world where we can quickly look up facts we need people who know how to not just repeat information but think, ask questions, and provide explanations to support those facts. 3-D learning provides our Ss with the skills to think critically and solve problems. #NGSSchat
@TedWillard2061@NGSSchat Randie Johnson, splitting my time between teaching 6th grade Science and Instructional Facilitator, Lombard IL, and I am thankful that I can honestly say that I am seeing great progress in my students on many levels. This year has had its new ups and downs but we are trending up
Question 2: Focused on grouping strategies and breakout rooms to keep students actively engaging with the material and communicating with each other. #NSTAchat
