A great read for my math friends. "Analyzing worked examples" is something I'd love to try more often with students to support fluency building @SuttonAllard

@marietculver @LRNow @VAAquarium @SeatackAADA @greenschoolsorg making their own discoveries through observations - love this @marietculver ! #doingscience

[Ryan Foster @RyanFoster25]

@anne_bianchi @mmthomps @JoshRingling @cziggy1 Love seeing your second graders #doingscience by analyzing and interpreting data (AND creating their own graphs with digital tools!!)! #datascience

Let the countdown begin!

[NASA @NASA]

Our @NASAPersevere rover will search for signs of ancient microbial life on Mars. But where are the best places to look? What instruments will it use, & how will @NASAAstrobio experts assess any evidence? Dive into the science as we #CountdownToMars: https://t.co/FRUYqNQW1E

[NASA @NASA]

🔴 LIVE NOW: Our @NASAPersevere rover has a brand new set of science instruments & the ability to “self-drive” on the Martian surface, but that’s not all! Join us now as we nerd out about the science aboard with a few #CountdownToMars mission experts: https://t.co/mzKW5uV4hS

[Discovery Education @DiscoveryEd]

TODAY! Join us for a professional learning session at 6PM EST with @STEMancipate. We’ll explore classroom resources from the #STEMCareersCoalition that highlight the many benefits of diversity in STEM. https://t.co/EIsjh7zRhs

3rd gr. Ts, what value could using wildlife webcams add to your Ss learning during the structures in nature unit? I spent a few mins observing this beautiful bald eagle in FL. this morning. I compared to this osprey nest in ME. Spanish moss vs. snow, predator-prey, adaptations...

[Marilyn Burns @mburnsmath]

Watch him give the wrong answer and then work his way to 42. I find that giving students time to work out their own reasoning is so valuable. Take a look. https://t.co/wD4h0ArUnp

[Ryan Foster @RyanFoster25]

Hey 3rd grade Ts! Your students can make discoveries about relationships between populations and communities using the Parts of Ecosystems exploration in @DiscoveryEd techbook. They can even gather and display data as evidence of relationships #DENlove #datascience

[Ryan Foster @RyanFoster25]

Hey 4th grade Ts! Have your students ever wondered what is meant by the phrase "days getting longer"? Interesting phenomenon - explained by @WxLehecka in her recent blog https://t.co/vibvGBfbsW

[Ryan Foster @RyanFoster25]

Hey @vbschools 4th gr Ts! Spreading the #DENlove this week by highlighting some @DiscoveryEd resources. Have you tried Where's the Shadow virtual lab? Engage Ss in reasoning and sense-making as they try to set the date to position the sun to hit the target. #seasons #earthstilt

[Ryan Foster @RyanFoster25]

Hey @vbschools Ts! Trying to spread the #DENLOVE this week by highlighting some of @DiscoveryEd resources. 5th gr. check out the Speed of Sound exploration in techbook. Students gather data on changes in sound speed based on media #datatalk as an extension https://t.co/NS0EZ3EyRe

So impressed by Zymoni! I’m sure @NASA can use your brilliant idea for a greenhouse on the lunar habitat. Thanks @MissKeltner for empowering your learners with creative learning experiences like this!

[Amy Keltner @MissKeltner]

As the students said, OMG! Zymoni is famous! She absolutely is! Thanks @WTKR3 for shining the spotlight on our amazing classroom and school @bfw_elem @MsLRiley @IrishPrincipal1 @MsDurio @RyanFoster25
