@PerkyScience Exciting. What are Pirate wars? #scitlap

Why is pirating addictive? They say once ye loose yer first hand your hooked! #scitlap #tlap

A3: I was confused about teachers making Poetry Trees. I was slow, but the PoeTrees look great. #scitlap

MsCorriG Apr 6 @ 9:20 PM EDT

A3 More teachers are taking "risks" with our technology and asked for coaching with Schoology. They are planning this next quarter. #scitlap

@SarahBosch1 It was the best. And while classroom teaching wasn't going on, new connections were made! (and delish BBQ) #scitlap

MsCorriG Apr 6 @ 9:27 PM EDT

A4 : That different content areas don't intersect. I will bring science and history into EVERYTHING #scitlap

SarahBosch1 Apr 6 @ 9:27 PM EDT

Oh No! This must end! I worry my Elem students will go on and think it's hands on every day. #scitlap https://t.co/H0Eyg25fK6

BroCstart Apr 6 @ 9:26 PM EDT

#scitlap a4 that science is boring. Biggest misconception ever.

SciTeach7Davis - Moderator Apr 6 @ 9:28 PM EDT

A4) I STILL have Ss who think that a dominant trait will be more frequent in the population. They do NOT like to let go... #scitlap

KathleenDiver Apr 6 @ 9:28 PM EDT

A4- That all they have to do is memorize facts to get an A in science #scitlap

SarahBosch1 Apr 6 @ 9:28 PM EDT

Yes. Students see school as compartmentalized so they keep things that way. #scitlap Way to fight it. https://t.co/PkhJhuSeWT

MsCorriG Apr 6 @ 9:27 PM EDT

A4 : That different content areas don't intersect. I will bring science and history into EVERYTHING #scitlap

PerkyScience Apr 6 @ 9:28 PM EDT

@daleyscience Thanks, the Ss got into in. Another Teacher even had a music video. With only 20 minutes to prepare the Ss amazed! #scitlap

BroCstart Apr 6 @ 9:28 PM EDT

@MsCorriG right! My ss have finally stopped saying "but this isn't ____ class!" #scitlap

PerkyScience Apr 6 @ 9:29 PM EDT

@KathleenDiver Possibly the biggest misconception of all! #scitlap

SarahBosch1 Apr 6 @ 9:30 PM EDT

A4: My students get food CHAINS. Food webs and interconnection is hard stuff #scitlap

SarahBosch1 Apr 6 @ 9:31 PM EDT

Q5: What do you think about the #AFT article? Specifically, this part? #scitlap https://t.co/T2wDirl7jb

KathleenDiver Apr 6 @ 9:31 PM EDT

@BroCstart @SarahBosch1 Are classes in elementary shcool compartmentilized? #scitlap

BroCstart Apr 6 @ 9:32 PM EDT

@AwesomeScience I love to just mention that concept to 7th graders and, once they are thoroughly confused, move on. 😈 #scitlap

MsCorriG Apr 6 @ 9:32 PM EDT

This comes down to how well you know your ss. Nice to see the assessment before you teach. #scitlap

PerkyScience Apr 6 @ 9:32 PM EDT

A5 When we don't know what our Ss dont know, or think they know that is wrong it is near impossible to design lessons for learning. #scitlap

BroCstart Apr 6 @ 9:33 PM EDT

@KathleenDiver @SarahBosch1 they def are at my k8 school. Course, that's IF k5 even get to science on a given day... 😢#scitlap

SarahBosch1 Apr 6 @ 9:33 PM EDT

You stated clearly why pre-tests are important. Thank you. #scitlap I think of them as chores. https://t.co/3WDdbWxmxN

PerkyScience Apr 6 @ 9:32 PM EDT

A5 When we don't know what our Ss dont know, or think they know that is wrong it is near impossible to design lessons for learning. #scitlap

SarahBosch1 Apr 6 @ 9:34 PM EDT

@KathleenDiver @BroCstart They have a schedule every day and separate folders for reading, writing, math, and social studies. #scitlap YES

MsCorriG Apr 6 @ 9:34 PM EDT

I can tell the health teacher all kinds of misconceptions the ss have based on the conversations they don't care that I hear. EW! #scitlap

MsCorriG Apr 6 @ 9:34 PM EDT

A5 I like pretests, then I know what I can review and what I need to get down to the nitty-gritty on #scitlap

Partain_Science - Moderator Apr 6 @ 9:35 PM EDT

A5: w/o understanding misconc. we can't create experiences that held defy those STRONGLY held beliefs! #scitlap

SarahBosch1 Apr 6 @ 9:35 PM EDT

@MsCorriG Ewww is right. #scitlap They need to learn Biology somewhere.

SarahBosch1 Apr 6 @ 9:36 PM EDT

A5: I find it interesting that teachers only identified 42% of biggest student misconceptions. We're missing what they are missing. #scitlap

MsCorriG Apr 6 @ 9:36 PM EDT

@SarahBosch1 Some situational awareness would go a long way as well #scitlap

BroCstart Apr 6 @ 9:36 PM EDT

@Partain_Science or worse, reinforce the misconception. They are devilishly hard to uproot! #scitlap

SarahBosch1 Apr 6 @ 9:36 PM EDT

I think it is a big problem! Not preparing them to work in a factory. The world is interconnected. #scitlap https://t.co/eW6S1RV6Jz

BroCstart Apr 6 @ 9:37 PM EDT

@SarahBosch1 so, Ts have misconceptions about ss misconceptions? #scitlap

MsCorriG Apr 6 @ 9:37 PM EDT

@Partain_Science Then it takes more drastic measures like physical experiments where they see/feel the answers #scitlap

daleyscience - Moderator Apr 6 @ 9:37 PM EDT

A5 Pretests can give good info. for lesson design. Have you guys tried @GRADECAM It's an amazing game-changer! #scitlap

SarahBosch1 Apr 6 @ 9:37 PM EDT

Partain_Science - Moderator Apr 6 @ 9:37 PM EDT

@BroCstart Yes! @SciTeach7Davis I had a T(!!) who misunderstood the frequency doesn't equal dominance in traits. #scitlap

BroCstart Apr 6 @ 9:38 PM EDT

A5: w/o understanding misconc. we can't create experiences that held defy those STRONGLY held beliefs! #scitlap

Partain_Science - Moderator Apr 6 @ 9:39 PM EDT

@PerkyScience @BroCstart Yes! Ss have to have multiple, multiple experiences to change some of those deeply held beliefs #scitlap

SarahBosch1 Apr 6 @ 9:39 PM EDT

@daleyscience @GRADECAM No, but now I'm following them! #scitlap

SciTeach7Davis - Moderator Apr 6 @ 9:40 PM EDT

@Partain_Science ANd YES. Changing minds happens through experience. #scitlap

Partain_Science - Moderator Apr 6 @ 9:42 PM EDT

It's powerful to be able to point out to Ss what common misconceptions are. Ss need to know that life (sci) is sometime deceiving #scitlap

MsCorriG Apr 6 @ 9:43 PM EDT

@PerkyScience Brilliant! Turn it into Project Based Learning. Not only discover the problem, how to prevent it +/or how to fix it. #scitlap

MsCorriG Apr 6 @ 9:52 PM EDT

@SarahBosch1 @Partain_Science You could choose which houses and figure out a plan that would only save those ones. #scitlap
