Exploring the properties of physical changes by making jell-o and then attempting to reverse the change by separating the water and jell-o powder. Don’t worry - the students got to eat some as well. 😋 #mypscience #teachertwitter

Measuring the effect of baking powder on the size of cupcakes - a delicious experiment for the grade 6s at WAB. I’m hoping they have as big an appetite for exploring chemical changes! #teachingscience #chemistryinthekitchen

Final lessons of our Chem Kitchen unit at WAB. Ss made pH indicator using red cabbage and tested kitchen items on a paint palette. Threw in some items that weren’t clear to begging with which made for interesting method analysis by Ss. Good fun in the lab, as always!

#Day9 at WAB allowed the opportunity to share a new hobby of mine with the Grade 6 and Grade 7 students. Sharing my (still limited, admittedly) knowledge of flag football with them was a blast! 💥🏈

Our Grade 6s WAB created different atmosphere’s using soda tablets, clingfilm, and temperature probes to explore #SDG 13. Fortunately, the weather was nice enough for us to use the sun as a heat source measure CO2’s heat absorbance!

Students are having a blast showing off their knowledge of ecosystems by randomly generating biomes with dice and creating organism that would live there. It reminded me of Alien Worlds on Netflix, so I showed it at the start to inspire ideas. I love the end-of-year projects!

Moving into a new science space with so many communal learning areas has opened up a world of possibilities for our MS Sciences team! Through smart unit planning and timetabling, we’re able to give our curriculum some exciting, learner-centred upgrades. Check it out!

A really meaningful session at #L2learning that got me thinking about how to further empower our students and prioritise our time. Thanks Joel!

Really enjoyed the opportunity to share how we are using our new science space at WAB to empower our learners in my participant-led workshop at the learning2 conference in Bangkok. So inspiring to see what other educators are doing to prepare learners for the future, too!
