All hands on deck we're hoking Marzono's essential 9. Introduce yourself and share your favorite unit. #scitlap

PerkyScience Sep 7 @ 9:02 PM EDT

@daleyscience @SciTeach7Davis I was bad this time around in not sending it out sooner. Hopefully we can still get a full crew.. #scitlap

Mr_Canterbury Sep 7 @ 9:02 PM EDT

James - middle grades science from @wcsdistrict in Ohio. I love watch my students try to particle diagram the greenhouse effect. #scitlap

SciTeach7Davis - Moderator Sep 7 @ 9:03 PM EDT

That was @JennyWamsley ...Probably need to just extend the date? #scitlap https://t.co/u0m14q3RMv

@SciTeach7Davis What ever happened to the Remind for #scitlap

Partain_Science - Moderator Sep 7 @ 9:04 PM EDT

Meggan, 8th grade science in Central Texas. I'm here! I'm here! #scitlap

SciTeach7Davis - Moderator Sep 7 @ 9:04 PM EDT

@PerkyScience @daleyscience How are the 2 of you connected? (In real life???) #scitlap

pentaclethra Sep 7 @ 9:05 PM EDT

Scott in Albany, NY area. Grade 8 and HS physics. Glad to be here for another #scitlap

PerkyScience Sep 7 @ 9:05 PM EDT

@SciTeach7Davis @daleyscience Just through this chat as far as I know. Meet some great educators here. #scitlap

PerkyScience Sep 7 @ 9:05 PM EDT

Our goal tonight: Discover ways to Piratize 7 of Marzano’s High Yield Instructional Strategies. #scitlap

Partain_Science - Moderator Sep 7 @ 9:05 PM EDT

I guess my favorite unit is maybe physics? We do integrated science in 8th in Tx so its a little bit of everything! #scitlap

BroCstart Sep 7 @ 9:06 PM EDT

#scitlap Christopher from KS checking in! Had to run to the library to get Wi-Fi

PerkyScience Sep 7 @ 9:06 PM EDT

Question 2 is on deck. (Question one was introductions) #scitlap

PerkyScience Sep 7 @ 9:06 PM EDT

Q2: Feedback can be a beast. How do you Setting objectives and providing feedback for kids? #scitlap https://t.co/32GNlvvfZC

burgessdave Sep 7 @ 9:06 PM EDT

3 chats tonight!! #scitlap & #KidsDeserveIt are right now!! Then join 1st week of #MakeItReal book study w/ @MathDenisNJ at 9:30 EST #tlap

BroCstart Sep 7 @ 9:08 PM EDT

Try to use #GAFE for feedback, but rather ad hoc for communicating obj and feedback. need to improve! #scitlap

daleyscience - Moderator Sep 7 @ 9:08 PM EDT

Hi everyone. I'm Kristin. I pirate in MA, 7th grade science. My favorite unit is genetics. It's the one Ss get most excited for #scitlap

Brian Science LEARNING through the 6 C's in Pasadena, CA #scitlap https://t.co/oorrCqGc4P

Partain_Science - Moderator Sep 7 @ 9:09 PM EDT

A2: I've worked hard at integrating the posted objectives into my instruction so Ss are much clearer on what & why... #scitlap

PerkyScience Sep 7 @ 9:09 PM EDT

@BroCstart I have started putting objectives on daily slides as goals and talking about them. It is a big push for our district. #scitlap

pentaclethra Sep 7 @ 9:09 PM EDT

A2 Objectives are shared verbally and on the board. Feedback depends on the context. Peer, self eval, verbal, written... #scitlap

BroCstart Sep 7 @ 9:10 PM EDT

@PerkyScience It would be good. I intentionally set up the back of my classroom for that sort of thing, just am bad at doing it! #scitlap

PerkyScience Sep 7 @ 9:10 PM EDT

@pentaclethra love peer feedback. I think some of my Ss best learning comes this way. #scitlap

daleyscience - Moderator Sep 7 @ 9:10 PM EDT

A2 Feeling the pain right now. Carving time for meaningful feedback is not easy. Would love to hear thoughts.. #scitlap

sbosch_spps Sep 7 @ 9:11 PM EDT

A2:(hi!) I'm working on showing students the series and connections of goals over a week. #scitlap

daleyscience - Moderator Sep 7 @ 9:11 PM EDT

A2 Giving myself some advice, maybe try to do more on the fly in class rather than let it pile up. #scitlap #scitlap

Partain_Science - Moderator Sep 7 @ 9:11 PM EDT

A2: I try to things where Ss can self-check so they can do their own self-assessment b4 I get involved. #scitlap

smarterteacher Sep 7 @ 9:12 PM EDT

A.2 I try to create opportunities for students to provide the feedback to each other. #scitlap https://t.co/tXm38s8rgr

pentaclethra Sep 7 @ 9:13 PM EDT

@PerkyScience I need to do peer feedback more often to train Ss on how to do it better. #scitlap

PerkyScience Sep 7 @ 9:13 PM EDT

Q3: Going beyond basic grouping, how do you engage kids using Cooperative Learning ? #scitlap https://t.co/3DgAzvwM27

PerkyScience Sep 7 @ 9:14 PM EDT

@pentaclethra Teachingat the beginning makes the rest of the year go so much better. LOTS of modeling. I like hearts and deltas. #scitlap

BroCstart Sep 7 @ 9:14 PM EDT

#scitlap A lot of my ss can't tell the diff between feedback and negative critiquing. Need some grit & growth-mindset!

SciTeach7Davis - Moderator Sep 7 @ 9:14 PM EDT

A2) I keep the goal/topic/content written on the board the whole week. Gotta smack em in the face with it, sometimes! #scitlap

A3: one of my PD goals for this yr, is better use of coop learn structures that hold Ss acct & support working together #scitlap

PerkyScience Sep 7 @ 9:15 PM EDT

@BroCstart https://t.co/CnI7xg2O8U has some good resources for teaching this. #scitlap

BroCstart Sep 7 @ 9:15 PM EDT

@PerkyScience Awesome, thanks! #scitlap

SciTeach7Davis - Moderator Sep 7 @ 9:16 PM EDT

A3) I've moved away from the old titles such as "recorder, timer, fact checker" etc. #scitlap

PerkyScience Sep 7 @ 9:16 PM EDT

@Partain_Science Love anything that holds Ss more accountable! #scitlap

Mr_Canterbury Sep 7 @ 9:16 PM EDT

A3: It's always great to have students collaborate on a group whiteboard to make their thinking visible. #scitlap

daleyscience - Moderator Sep 7 @ 9:16 PM EDT

A3 Science lends itself to cooperative learning. I don't always do it, but assigning roles can help. Recorder, leader, etc. #scitlap

BroCstart Sep 7 @ 9:16 PM EDT

@SciTeach7Davis what new tactic do you use in its place? #scitlap

PerkyScience Sep 7 @ 9:16 PM EDT

@SciTeach7Davis What do you use now? #scitlap

SciTeach7Davis - Moderator Sep 7 @ 9:17 PM EDT

@PerkyScience That's a good question. I think they just take turns naturally... #scitlap

PerkyScience Sep 7 @ 9:17 PM EDT

Global Collaboration day is Sept 13. @jdeinhammer and I are looking for mystery skype buddies...let us know if you are interested. #scitlap

Partain_Science - Moderator Sep 7 @ 9:17 PM EDT

@BroCstart @SciTeach7Davis I don't really use these roles either. I'm trying structures where there is mutual independence #scitlap #Kagan

ohwowmrspowell Sep 7 @ 9:18 PM EDT

Hi, #scitlap! 5th grade Math/Sci teacher from Raleigh, NC jumping in a bit late, but excited to learn! Jazzed about tonight's topic!

BroCstart Sep 7 @ 9:18 PM EDT

#scitlap WHen I try to use roles, they wreak of fake and my ss balk. Over-achievers still pick up slack from other ss

SciTeach7Davis - Moderator Sep 7 @ 9:18 PM EDT

@BroCstart No real "new tactic". I haven't even used the phrase "coop learning" in years. I think the C's have replaced. #scitlap

Partain_Science - Moderator Sep 7 @ 9:19 PM EDT

@SciTeach7Davis @PerkyScience IMO some Ss need to really be taught & practice how to do this.. it doesn't come naturally. #scitlap

smarterteacher Sep 7 @ 9:19 PM EDT

Let students oversee each other during formative assessments. #scitlap https://t.co/CqOi73kDtK

smarterteacher Sep 7 @ 9:19 PM EDT

Let students oversee each other during formative assessments. #scitlap https://t.co/9qnkXYOx3L

BroCstart Sep 7 @ 9:19 PM EDT

#scitlap ... and I should say over-achievers don't allow other ss chance to do their work sometimes too!

PerkyScience Sep 7 @ 9:19 PM EDT

@ohwowmrspowell Always love to add to our crew. Welcome! #scitlap

Mr_Canterbury Sep 7 @ 9:19 PM EDT

@BroCstart Bingo! #scitlap

BroCstart Sep 7 @ 9:19 PM EDT

@SciTeach7Davis I like that. I need to think more along those lines #scitlap

SciTeach7Davis - Moderator Sep 7 @ 9:20 PM EDT

@Partain_Science @PerkyScience Our 6th grade team (and earlier) must do a lot of prepping then... #thanks #scitlap

jdeinhammer Sep 7 @ 9:20 PM EDT

@SciTeach7Davis I'm trying jobs this year too for accountability - made these for classroom #scitlap https://t.co/mSoepRXwoc

ohwowmrspowell Sep 7 @ 9:21 PM EDT

A3: During collaborative group work, I try and give Ss sentence frames to use to drive their discussions -- keeping focused! #scitlap

PerkyScience Sep 7 @ 9:21 PM EDT

Question 4 is on deck. #scitlap

Mr_Canterbury Sep 7 @ 9:21 PM EDT

A3: Sometimes my whiteboarding instructions include: "If you can't explain it, you can't draw it". Forces more S communication. #scitlap

SciTeach7Davis - Moderator Sep 7 @ 9:21 PM EDT

@jdeinhammer Well, I LOVE these. You modernized them!!! #scitlap

ohwowmrspowell Sep 7 @ 9:21 PM EDT

A3: I might assign a materials manager, but I try and reinforce that all members of the group have shared ownership of the task. #scitlap

PerkyScience Sep 7 @ 9:22 PM EDT

Q4: How have you used student created Nonlinguistic representations to hook your students? Images, models...#scitlap https://t.co/fmHcYpdjr7

pentaclethra Sep 7 @ 9:22 PM EDT

@BroCstart Sometimes have the same exp here. I assign roles based on group composition. Some need it. Some don't. #scitlap

SciTeach7Davis - Moderator Sep 7 @ 9:23 PM EDT

Modernizing cooperative learning roles/jobs! Love these!!! #scitlap https://t.co/9jQej08wZT

@SciTeach7Davis I'm trying jobs this year too for accountability - made these for classroom #scitlap https://t.co/mSoepRXwoc

jdeinhammer Sep 7 @ 9:23 PM EDT

@SciTeach7Davis thanks - I saw the idea and love the app word swag 😃 #scitlap

smarterteacher Sep 7 @ 9:23 PM EDT

There are not that many lighthouses in the world. Our Ss will need to collaborate. #scitlap https://t.co/tuR3WsdceX

jdeinhammer Sep 7 @ 9:23 PM EDT

@cya_outside @PerkyScience cool! It's Sept 15 - next Thursday!! #scitlap

PerkyScience Sep 7 @ 9:24 PM EDT

@pentaclethra @BroCstart differentiation! Excellent! #scitlap

ohwowmrspowell Sep 7 @ 9:24 PM EDT

A4: Silent graffiti gallery walk of peer diagrams - Ss reflect on others' diagrams, writing comments using sentence frames #scitlap

SciTeach7Davis - Moderator Sep 7 @ 9:24 PM EDT

A4) I have an entire set of crafty "cell parts" from previous students. Set them out during cell unit. #scitlap

pentaclethra Sep 7 @ 9:25 PM EDT

A4 Honestly I'm not even sure what is being asked. I can take a stab at what "nonlinguistic representation" means. Modeling! #scitlap

PerkyScience Sep 7 @ 9:25 PM EDT

@jdeinhammer @cya_outside Thanks for the correction. My fingers get flustered when I am steering. #scitlap

Partain_Science - Moderator Sep 7 @ 9:25 PM EDT

A4: We did some physical body motion for x & y axis today. My class has LOTS of picture for lots of beg. ELL students. Helps! #scitlap

Mr_Canterbury Sep 7 @ 9:25 PM EDT

A4: Next week, we're having students share graphs from Ss in other periods and guess what they were trying to measure. #scitlap

Partain_Science - Moderator Sep 7 @ 9:25 PM EDT

@pentaclethra anything that isn't words is my definition... #scitlap

daleyscience - Moderator Sep 7 @ 9:26 PM EDT

I'm glad Im not the only one, lol. #scitlap https://t.co/6c0vby3eSy

pentaclethra Sep 7 @ 9:25 PM EDT

A4 Honestly I'm not even sure what is being asked. I can take a stab at what "nonlinguistic representation" means. Modeling! #scitlap

PerkyScience Sep 7 @ 9:26 PM EDT

@pentaclethra According to my research it is anything that isn't words. Pantomimes, kinestenic activities, visual vocabulary.... #scitlap

HowardKiyuna Sep 7 @ 9:26 PM EDT

A3: Started Stock Market Game today. Told Ss that teams have roles. They got ridid/define roles. I intervened by sugg turn taking. #scitlap

ohwowmrspowell Sep 7 @ 9:26 PM EDT

A4: I find the nonlinguistic easier to incorporate in math, with the use of manipulatives, drawings, and models. #scitlap

smarterteacher Sep 7 @ 9:27 PM EDT

HS Ss can still learn a great deal from clay. #scitlap https://t.co/RSbZ8HCXFi

Partain_Science - Moderator Sep 7 @ 9:27 PM EDT

@PerkyScience @pentaclethra My coaching brain totally agrees with this. #scitlap

jdeinhammer Sep 7 @ 9:27 PM EDT

@cya_outside @PerkyScience yay!!we have 8:40 and 9:30 and 1:40 and 2:45 all CST #scitlap 😃

ohwowmrspowell Sep 7 @ 9:27 PM EDT

A4: Also, a T at my school does a visual word wall - Ss create drawings/images to represent key vocab for content areas #scitlap

PerkyScience Sep 7 @ 9:27 PM EDT

We use info pics for vocab. Ss create or take original images then add their own vocab definition to it. Post where all can see. #scitlap

HowardKiyuna Sep 7 @ 9:28 PM EDT

A4: Computer microscope screen shots. Let them guess. #scitlap

Mr_Canterbury Sep 7 @ 9:28 PM EDT

A4: We just ran stream tables in lab. Students had to take time lapse pics to see changes over time. Started gr8 convos! #scitlap

smarterteacher Sep 7 @ 9:29 PM EDT

More clay #scitlap https://t.co/7ErYseaM6e

BroCstart Sep 7 @ 9:29 PM EDT

@smarterteacher anything with more clay is bound to be better. #scitlap

PerkyScience Sep 7 @ 9:29 PM EDT

Q5: Homework and Practice can be controversial. What are your thoughts and how do you handle it. #scitlap https://t.co/BEVT7EDvoU

PerkyScience Sep 7 @ 9:30 PM EDT

@smarterteacher We used clay this year for kids to introduce themselves. Opened my mind to so many more possibilities. #scitlap

Mr_Canterbury Sep 7 @ 9:30 PM EDT

A4: Monday we start Glacial Goo inquiry labs. No writing just yet. Just lots of Goo, toothpicks, and time. #scitlap

BroCstart Sep 7 @ 9:30 PM EDT

a5 #scitlap I assign maybe 20 min. hw a week max. usually a short screen cast w/ 3-5 questions. sometimes short reading asn.

smarterteacher Sep 7 @ 9:31 PM EDT

I agree with Edith Ann #scitlap https://t.co/nSo8SlUlWC

BroCstart Sep 7 @ 9:31 PM EDT

@Mr_Canterbury you had me at glacial goo. Can you tell me more?! #scitlap

ohwowmrspowell Sep 7 @ 9:31 PM EDT

Q5: Big proponent of purposeful, appropriate hw. Short, focused, and relevant. Directly in response to student learning. #scitlap

SciTeach7Davis - Moderator Sep 7 @ 9:32 PM EDT

a5) Sci HW: i like it to extend thinking from the topics in class. Or review with a video like amoeba sisters... #scitlap

ohwowmrspowell Sep 7 @ 9:32 PM EDT

*A5, that is! #scitlap https://t.co/SnZFBTU2Zw

ohwowmrspowell Sep 7 @ 9:31 PM EDT

Q5: Big proponent of purposeful, appropriate hw. Short, focused, and relevant. Directly in response to student learning. #scitlap

daleyscience - Moderator Sep 7 @ 9:32 PM EDT

A5 Love this Q. I do not believe in HW. I believe in creating sci experiences that lead to dinner table discussions and a-has . #scitlap

smarterteacher Sep 7 @ 9:32 PM EDT

@alicekeeler isn't too bad either. #scitlap I actually #flipclass my chemistry https://t.co/ucClNfpyYP

PerkyScience Sep 7 @ 9:32 PM EDT

@ohwowmrspowell Goes right along with Marzano. It is important for Ss. to know the purpose of the HW when they have it. #scitlap

Partain_Science - Moderator Sep 7 @ 9:33 PM EDT

A5: My campus doesn't do a lot of homework. It is a tiny part of grade (10%). Most HW exacerbates the haves & have nots IMO. #scitlap

BroCstart Sep 7 @ 9:33 PM EDT

@daleyscience same here! I know I'm doing my job when parents comment how much ss talk to them about science class! #scitlap

HowardKiyuna Sep 7 @ 9:33 PM EDT

A5: Challenging. If they understand it well enough to do at home alone then do they need it. If Ss who need it, r P's doing my job? #scitlap

PerkyScience Sep 7 @ 9:33 PM EDT

@daleyscience Love the dinner table extension! #scitlap

pentaclethra Sep 7 @ 9:33 PM EDT

A5 No homework, unless it needs to be done at home like a home energy survey or an extended project. #scitlap

ohwowmrspowell Sep 7 @ 9:34 PM EDT

@PerkyScience Certainly homework is sometimes abused, but when thoughtfully created and assigned, it is valuable! #scitlap

PerkyScience Sep 7 @ 9:34 PM EDT

@ohwowmrspowell do you grade it? How do you give feedback on it? #scitlap

smarterteacher Sep 7 @ 9:34 PM EDT

Kids are kids, even when then they become adults. #scitlap @PerkyScience https://t.co/qQeZhuz3FV

daleyscience - Moderator Sep 7 @ 9:34 PM EDT

A5 Handle it by telling parents and kids up front. I have a website, videos, Quizlets, etc for anybody who wants to review. #scitlap

Mr_Canterbury Sep 7 @ 9:34 PM EDT

@BroCstart Erosion & Deposition by wind, ice, and gravity. We are finishing E & D by water this week. #scitlap

PerkyScience Sep 7 @ 9:35 PM EDT

@daleyscience I do this by putting extra practice links on my lesson plans. Ss. who miss a day have multiple options. #scitlap

ohwowmrspowell Sep 7 @ 9:35 PM EDT

@PerkyScience I check for effort & completion, not correctness - part of a work habits grade; then, we review & discuss confusions #scitlap

smarterteacher Sep 7 @ 9:36 PM EDT

HW as practice is like the HRs Hank Aaron his in BP. Not counted in the 755. #scitlap https://t.co/8LbFPNlt9F

PerkyScience Sep 7 @ 9:34 PM EDT

@ohwowmrspowell do you grade it? How do you give feedback on it? #scitlap

Mr_Canterbury Sep 7 @ 9:36 PM EDT

@BroCstart It's always been my favorite! Hit me up anytime - I've got loads of stuff! #scitlap

BroCstart Sep 7 @ 9:36 PM EDT

@Mr_Canterbury Thanks! #scitlap

daleyscience - Moderator Sep 7 @ 9:36 PM EDT

I once went to an EdCamp where the HW Q was asked. We split into 2 sides of the controversy and me and 1 other guy were all alone. #scitlap

Mr_Canterbury Sep 7 @ 9:37 PM EDT

A5: No homework unless it is to finish something we've been working on for days. #scitlap

PerkyScience Sep 7 @ 9:37 PM EDT

Q6: Sailing the seas can be rough. How do you recognize student perfomance and effort? #scitlap https://t.co/KUQ3kTGGjL

BroCstart Sep 7 @ 9:37 PM EDT

@daleyscience wow! That would be INTENSE! #scitlap

HowardKiyuna Sep 7 @ 9:37 PM EDT

A5: Got this from our @GailEwell . Using homework to teach perseverance through differentiated homework. https://t.co/HCdEJliKzl #scitlap

ohwowmrspowell Sep 7 @ 9:38 PM EDT

A6: School-wide focus on #growthmindset, a #PBIS system linked to effort rather than behavior, & positive reinforcement! #scitlap

jdeinhammer Sep 7 @ 9:38 PM EDT

@daleyscience I would have been on your side 😃 most of the time homework measures compliance, not understanding #scitlap

Mr_Canterbury Sep 7 @ 9:38 PM EDT

A6: I've started trying to publicly thank the students more. When they follow dirs the first time, or explain a tough term. #scitlap

AliceCB32 Sep 7 @ 9:38 PM EDT

Joining late, was putting the 2yo to bed! I'll start with #4 I love NLR specially when the Ss make them #scitlap https://t.co/vjvPVWoHyY

PerkyScience Sep 7 @ 9:39 PM EDT

A6: This week I put examples of excellent work on the board. It was amazing how the Ss lit up even though their name wasn't shown. #scitlap

BroCstart Sep 7 @ 9:39 PM EDT

@ohwowmrspowell my principal has assigned our PLCs to study #growthmindset I hope it catches on #scitlap

HowardKiyuna Sep 7 @ 9:39 PM EDT

A5: Got this from our Dir @GailEwell Using differentiated homework to teach perseverance. https://t.co/HCdEJliKzl #scitlap

ohwowmrspowell Sep 7 @ 9:39 PM EDT

@BroCstart It is so powerful! As a science T, tie it in to a class discussion about how the brain works. Kids were enthralled! #scitlap

PerkyScience Sep 7 @ 9:39 PM EDT

#5 HW no thank you!! Hw for them is HW for me! Unless it's a project #scitlap

PerkyScience Sep 7 @ 9:40 PM EDT

@ohwowmrspowell @BroCstart I start the year teaching this then Ss create a "YET" wall with one idea on how they will grow this year #scitlap

Partain_Science - Moderator Sep 7 @ 9:41 PM EDT

A6: I do a ton of private notes. Use nice adult cards w/ envelopes some times to emphasize respect I have for Ss. #scitlap

ohwowmrspowell Sep 7 @ 9:41 PM EDT

@PerkyScience @BroCstart I like that word..."yet". Leaves lots of room for improvement and potential. #scitlap

PerkyScience Sep 7 @ 9:42 PM EDT

@Partain_Science I need to get sooo much better at this! #scitlap

daleyscience - Moderator Sep 7 @ 9:42 PM EDT

A6 Display work, give compliments. Probably something I could be better at. #scitlap

smarterteacher Sep 7 @ 9:43 PM EDT

A6 Empower them to LEARN. And ask this question. Providing them both Voice and CHOICE. #scitlap https://t.co/OH8MpWO5VO

BroCstart Sep 7 @ 9:43 PM EDT

a6 #scitlap I think this is an area where anyone could grow. Super important for rapport.

PerkyScience Sep 7 @ 9:44 PM EDT

@smarterteacher I love sharing my Ss voice! it improves both product and effort as the audience grows. #scitlap

ohwowmrspowell Sep 7 @ 9:44 PM EDT

A6: I also like giving specific praise on effort/performance, then a specific challenge for how to #aimhigher. Helps Ss set goals. #scitlap

AliceCB32 Sep 7 @ 9:44 PM EDT

High school kids love stickers and stamps too. I also use their work as an example and it gets posted around the room. #scitlap

@daleyscience It is one of the most effective strategies I have found for tough Ss. #scitlap

PerkyScience Sep 7 @ 9:45 PM EDT

Q7: Note taking & summaries can be a beat down. How do you use these tools in your class? #scitlap https://t.co/KTlqyFmTaN

pentaclethra Sep 7 @ 9:45 PM EDT

A6 I need to do better at this. The occasional highfive and "good work" doesnt seem enough.More stickers and notes. Good call home. #scitlap

daleyscience - Moderator Sep 7 @ 9:47 PM EDT

A7 a Dabbled in a little visual note taking last year. I thought it was fun, bit Ss needed help thinking outside the box. #scitlap

ohwowmrspowell Sep 7 @ 9:47 PM EDT

A7: Summarizing thru exit tickets, accountable talk partnerships, & all aspects of communication - writing, speaking, drawing #scitlap

PerkyScience Sep 7 @ 9:47 PM EDT

@Partain_Science I think I learned it from you last in this chat. It has become one of my main tools! #scitlap

ohwowmrspowell Sep 7 @ 9:48 PM EDT

A7: Note-taking is limited with my 5th graders - foldables (more engaging), key vocab, & lots of visual support to paste in! #scitlap

pentaclethra Sep 7 @ 9:48 PM EDT

@ohwowmrspowell I like your thinking on exit tickets. Good feedback for tchr and summary for Ss. #scitlap

@Partain_Science yes! we borrowed this idea from you last year and loved it - sketchnotes are my favorite! #scitlap

Mr_Canterbury Sep 7 @ 9:49 PM EDT

A7: I try to have students take notes when they are trying to write what they see happening in lab. Explanations can come later. #scitlap

ohwowmrspowell Sep 7 @ 9:49 PM EDT

@daleyscience I am trying some visual note taking with my Ss. Now, they want me to TELL them what to draw. Working on creativity! #scitlap

PerkyScience Sep 7 @ 9:49 PM EDT

@daleyscience I think visual note taking reduces the tendency for some to have verbal vomit. It makes Ss consider what is important #scitlap

Partain_Science - Moderator Sep 7 @ 9:50 PM EDT

A7: Sort of review/ sort of summary but have you tried Quiz-Quiz-Trade? It's a review game.. #scitlap

AliceCB32 Sep 7 @ 9:50 PM EDT

A7 Tech makes the world awesome! Ss can make mag covers with small blurbs that summarize each picture. #scitlap

ohwowmrspowell Sep 7 @ 9:50 PM EDT

@pentaclethra Also "fast" way to get an idea of student understanding. I typically use post-its or notecards. #scitlap

daleyscience - Moderator Sep 7 @ 9:51 PM EDT

Yes, same here. Had a sample and just wanted to copy. I think they get afraid of doing it wrong. #scitlap https://t.co/aKXuwXY74k

@ohwowmrspowell Have you used plickers as exit slips before? #scitlap

Partain_Science - Moderator Sep 7 @ 9:51 PM EDT

@AliceCB32 We've done lower tech, "brain dumps" for pictures to try to see connections between topics #scitlap

daleyscience - Moderator Sep 7 @ 9:51 PM EDT

Love the way you worded this. #scitlap https://t.co/ZP1cQbAUOj

AliceCB32 Sep 7 @ 9:52 PM EDT

A7 again I have kids use @google draw to create a visual rep then insert into @ThingLink to summarize and add links to it #scitlap

ohwowmrspowell Sep 7 @ 9:52 PM EDT

@Mr_Canterbury Not as an exit ticket, but that's an interesting idea! Would be an even faster way to gather data #scitlap

daleyscience - Moderator Sep 7 @ 9:52 PM EDT

Intrigued! #scitlap https://t.co/8ojSQcukyH

@AliceCB32 Great combo! Can't wait for my school's WiFi to be back up to speed so we can do things like this! #scitlap

PerkyScience Sep 7 @ 9:52 PM EDT

Q8: Identifying similarities & differences. How do your Ss compare, classify, or metaphore-ize learning? #scitlap https://t.co/gd4AAoXFeA

Partain_Science - Moderator Sep 7 @ 9:53 PM EDT

@AliceCB32 @google @ThingLink I need to work on my google draw skills...I am usually BFF w/ @google but that one I find frustrating #scitlap

jdeinhammer Sep 7 @ 9:53 PM EDT

@AliceCB32 love it! do you use an app for that or just freestyle it? #scitlap

PerkyScience Sep 7 @ 9:53 PM EDT

@daleyscience I teach middle school. I go where they are. :) #scitlap

pentaclethra Sep 7 @ 9:53 PM EDT

A8 The good ole venn diagram. #scitlap

daleyscience - Moderator Sep 7 @ 9:53 PM EDT

@PerkyScience I hear ya! You gotta always be moving for that crew! #scitlap

PerkyScience Sep 7 @ 9:54 PM EDT

@pentaclethra I had the Ss do this once silently through movement. They were the vocabulary words. So funny to watch #scitlap

Partain_Science - Moderator Sep 7 @ 9:54 PM EDT

A8: I think creating or working w/ analogies falls into this category & can be very powerful... #scitlap

jdeinhammer Sep 7 @ 9:55 PM EDT

@ohwowmrspowell @daleyscience im starting this year by giving them visual ISN inserts to see if it helps to think non linear #scitlap

ohwowmrspowell Sep 7 @ 9:55 PM EDT

@Mr_Canterbury Has the opposite effect on me! All I think about is how much I hate cleaning showers! #scitlap https://t.co/96rAYOmjUy

PerkyScience Sep 7 @ 9:55 PM EDT

@Partain_Science For sure. I think analogies improve memory. Gives them a tie in to previous knowledge. #scitlap

A7 Tabletop graffiti is a Student favorite #scitlap https://t.co/cw3zGAt85L

PerkyScience Sep 7 @ 9:57 PM EDT

@smarterteacher my Ss like to add stop motion videos to this. It shows how their thinking moves. #scitlap

@ohwowmrspowell Try Recap? If you have iPads or Chromebooks, ideal for kids' responses. #scitlap #edtech https://t.co/brLjQq5H4d

A7: Summarizing thru exit tickets, accountable talk partnerships, & all aspects of communication - writing, speaking, drawing #scitlap

Mr_Canterbury Sep 7 @ 9:59 PM EDT

Hope to see you all in 13 days! Thanks for another great chat! #scitlap #ohedchat https://t.co/BupqpbrzBZ

PerkyScience Sep 7 @ 9:59 PM EDT

@ohwowmrspowell @smarterteacher black lab tables are best. #scitlap

ohwowmrspowell Sep 7 @ 9:59 PM EDT

@MistaB10 I'll look into this! I have way more Ss than I have devices, but it might be something I can incorporate into stations! #scitlap

daleyscience - Moderator Sep 7 @ 9:59 PM EDT

@smarterteacher What do you use for pens and for clean up b/c this looks like a heck of a fun thing!! #scitlap

Mr_Canterbury Sep 7 @ 9:59 PM EDT

@daleyscience I've thought that myself! #scitlap

BroCstart Sep 7 @ 9:59 PM EDT

G'night, #scitlap. I think I might be catching the first bug of the school year. ugh.

PerkyScience Sep 7 @ 9:59 PM EDT

A8 I have used first word last word from Paige Keeley. They create Acronyms at beginning and end of unit. shows growth. #scitlap
