Why do tires lose air pressure in cold weather? (Science opener!) Answer: A: As temps drop, air molecules move less, resulting in a 1 degree drop in PSI for every 10 degree drop in temp.

The downward spiral of boys in school is not sustainable. I reached out to 4 educators to talk about it. Are boys wired differently? Are today's schools a mismatch? 24 min. documentary. Please share. Thanks! youtu.be/7MzwEJtlFc4

90% of class disruptions are male...as are almost all office referrals. 70% of D's & F's - yep, boys. Imagine the possibilities if instruction fit their neurobiology. 22 min film=4 educators give their take. Reach out for PD to change the trajectory! youtu.be/7MzwEJtlFc4?si…

We are losing our boys. Even boys who are "good students" don't think much of school. Let's change that trajectory. Reach out for PD on Teaching Boys.

Spatial reasoning is the ability to mentally rotate 3D objects. This skill is hugely important in STEM. Students can develop this skill by - playing TETRIS!

Autonomy motivates. The 1st time I used a menu in class, one reluctant learner said, "Do you mean I can do anything I want?" I nodded. He got right to work. 2 of mine: one is a 2-5-8, the other a block. Make a 100 any way you want!

A positive, fresh start for students who have fallen behind. Because going back & back can create "The Matthew Effect" in which the gaps expand. 2 min video on acceleration.

Teaching Boys: Agree or Disagree? 1. Boys learn better in cool classrooms with bright light. 2. Boys are reluctant to ask for help. 3. When boys win a game, their testosterone increases. 4. Boys learn better in organized classes. 5. Boys just can't sit still. (All Agree!)

This article promoted by @ascd about how teachers are not helping girls enough is beyond disappointing. Where is the concern about lagging reading scores for boys? Or the fact that 70% of D's and F's are boys? Or pehaps their plummeting college admission rates? They should
