Starting the first full day with a Dan Burns lab! Called it the physics Olympics given the timing. Great way to introduce whiteboarding before we work in graphing with Desmos and data collection with Vernier Science Education #iteachphysics

This year our school district went back to a daily 6-Period schedule instead of the AB block schedule adopted after 2020. Pros: better for students. +routine, shorter classes, builds continuity and community. Cons: Feels relentless planning everyday instead of every other!

Vertical and mobile whiteboards are great for recording group data, then students can consolidate the averages in notebooks #iteachphysics

First year teaching high school bio, have always preferred the predictability of physics labs but it’s nice to try something out of my element! Mealworm lab with choice chambers docs.google.com/document/d/1NN… #iteachbio

I just wanted to shout out Biologycorner. This is my 1st year teaching HS bio and while I had some supplies there was no curriculum. Bio corner has both a quality and quantity of resources that she posts in Gdoc form so you can download and edit. Appreciation post! #iteachbio

Today was our 1st day digging into #ProjectHailMary. Read ch. 1, then used Marcus Luther TQE template to analyze the text. Goal is to find g on Earth, next week will use Vernier Science Education photogate and picket fence to calculate g. Used tape to cover the answer in book #iteachphysics

Did our annual elevator acceleration lab using the Vernier Science Education Force plate. Gives great data and easily allows students to derive the acceleration of the elevator itself using data from the force-time graph docs.google.com/document/d/1Q7… #iteachphysics

Simple translational equilibrium lab in our unit on Forces, Torque, and construction. Just need 2 Vernier Science Education force sensors, meter stick, and mass(es) #iteachphysics #modphys
