I have made it my MISSION that students DO science in first year chemistry. Run experiments, have their hypothesis shattered, collect data that does not support their initial claim, and argue over the meaning of data. Science is not as black and white as our textbooks show.

“Looking closely is not only to observe, but to describe, question, compare, connect, reason...It is an overarching disposition that can become a habit of mind and practice for our students…” -Jessica Ross #pzvirtualworkshop

In terms of student thinking and learning- what is possible at home that can do be done at school? #justcurious

Challenge accepted @OLSD_Diversity

Feeling motivated and inspired after spending the week with Olentangy Schools Builing Leadership Teams. They showed up as learners and embraced their curiosity to unpack the concept of agency through the #meaningmaking #thinkingroutine @RonRitchhart

As groups build on their connections to make meaning of “Learner Agency”, they are also generating questions they are still wondering about.

"What if we determined to return to our classrooms asking these questions, seeking answers, and teaching in response to what we learn instead of returning to an old “normal” that in so many ways was abnormal?" Carol Ann Tomlinson via Defined blog.definedlearning.com/seven-question…

Hexagonal thinking - may be one of my five fave class activities! Added some wrinkles - plus points and bonus hexes! #usmsocial #sschat #apush

During today’s chalk talk, Mrs. Howard’s second graders got to choose a strategy they felt was reliable to be problem solvers! They checked their own work and the work of a friend in another group to ensure everyone’s thinking was reasonable!

Wow, this is awesome! Vincent DeTillio

Today I snapped at a kid…twice. Later I found him to talk.He understood why I snapped the 1st time, but not the 2nd. He said he was paying attn…we chatted…i believed him. I was wrong. So I apologized. His face =😁 This is a reminder:It’s ok to apologize to kids when ur wrong

Fantastic day of professional development. Started with deconstructing some things. Then moved to a deep dive into defining student engagement…moving slowly to figure out the parts, purposes & complexities. Group 3 was phenomenal to work with!!! Olentangy Schools
