@SarahBosch1 Hey Sarah! Thanks for stopping in! #scitlap

Partain_Science - Moderator May 4 @ 9:07 PM EDT

@quilterliz Oh! I hadn't thought about Clue! #scitlap

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:08 PM EDT

A1 My catch phrase is FUN! #scitlap

BroCstart May 4 @ 9:08 PM EDT

#SCITLAP a1 Explorer's clubhouse Or Chaos disguised as learning Or You're all my guinea pigs in my learning experimentation

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:09 PM EDT

@BroCstart I like the Chaos one, that could be me! I have said “playing” instead. #scitlap

daleyscience - Moderator May 4 @ 9:09 PM EDT

A1 My class catch phrase is "science is fun"! Okay, that's boring...gonna rethink that one! #scitlap

Partain_Science - Moderator May 4 @ 9:09 PM EDT

A1: I'm thinking of what a catch-phrase would be...don't won't to be accused of not particpating ;) #scitlap

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:10 PM EDT

A1 if you can’t think of one, get your students to do it tomorrow and report back! #scitlap

BroCstart May 4 @ 9:10 PM EDT

@SueAtSea right! Why shouldn't school be fun. I feel drained and bored after doing "normal" school stuff #SCITLAP

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:10 PM EDT

@BroCstart Amen, preach it! #scitlap

#SCITLAP a2 monopoly on new fangled ideas, tech, and ss looking forward to my class

SarahBosch1 May 4 @ 9:12 PM EDT

A2: I have the monopoly on messy things! Sand, soil, Sensory bins. Custodian says he'll worry if it's clean. #scitlap

daleyscience - Moderator May 4 @ 9:12 PM EDT

@SueAtSea On it! #scitlap

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:13 PM EDT

A2 I think I stand alone being a grant junkie! Although I try to get others interested! #scitlap

BroCstart May 4 @ 9:13 PM EDT

@Partain_Science @SueAtSea definitely! Different kinds of tired, some better than others #scitlap

cjcrawcooper May 4 @ 9:13 PM EDT

A2: flames and the best pencil sharpener (so they tell me) #scitlap

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:13 PM EDT

@SarahBosch1 Hioe your Ss help, too! #scitlap

I don't really have a catch phrase! Must work on this #scitlap

Partain_Science - Moderator May 4 @ 9:13 PM EDT

A2: Tech, twitter, where to find the "missing" science stuff! #scitlap

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:14 PM EDT

@cjcrawcooper I do flames, too - and DO share on the pencil sharpener! #scitlap

BroCstart May 4 @ 9:14 PM EDT

@SarahBosch1 hah! That's awesome. Custodian at my schl loves to see what we're up to, makes up for the mess. #scitlap try to have ss clean..

quilterliz May 4 @ 9:14 PM EDT

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:15 PM EDT

Apologize if Q’s go too fast. I can retweet the list of them! #scitlap

BroCstart May 4 @ 9:16 PM EDT

A3 #scitlap trying to do too much and wearing myself out. Must learn to take care of myself better.

daleyscience - Moderator May 4 @ 9:17 PM EDT

Yah, me too. I don't mean to be a hoarder, but I'm bad at putting stuff away! #scitlap https://t.co/3IjaaFU6mJ

Partain_Science - Moderator May 4 @ 9:13 PM EDT

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:17 PM EDT

@BroCstart Thank goodness for summer! #scitlap

BroCstart May 4 @ 9:17 PM EDT

@SueAtSea I like the fast pace keeps my thinking #scitlap

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:18 PM EDT

A3 I am sorry I didn’t put more effort into blogging. But you can’t do it all, and I DID take care of myself! #scitlap

cjcrawcooper May 4 @ 9:18 PM EDT

A3:wish I had time to flip the bio dual credit class #scitlap

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:18 PM EDT

@cjcrawcooper Have you found other Bio Ts on twitter to share this goal? Maybe next term? #scitlap

BroCstart May 4 @ 9:18 PM EDT

@daleyscience beauty of teaching at a small schl I don't have to share! Worst part of teaching at small schl, no one to share with #scitlap

quilterliz May 4 @ 9:19 PM EDT

@daleyscience @Partain_Science me too, I call it "organized chaos". #scitlap

daleyscience - Moderator May 4 @ 9:19 PM EDT

A3. Maybe not hanging up enough student work. I have good intentions, but... #scitlap

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:19 PM EDT

@BroCstart @daleyscience We will share everything w/you! #scitlap

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:19 PM EDT

Q4 in a minute! #scitlap

@BroCstart dissecting squid next week, and cooking some up!#scitlap

BroCstart May 4 @ 9:20 PM EDT

@quilterliz glad I'm not alone in this. I hate when I take out my tiredness on a ss. Worst thing ever. #scitlap

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:20 PM EDT

@daleyscience My bulletin board got commandeered by safety patrols but not complaining! #scitlap

BroCstart May 4 @ 9:21 PM EDT

@quilterliz nice! That sounds like fun #scitlap

BroCstart May 4 @ 9:22 PM EDT

A4 #scitlap is one of my light bulbs! Finding a tribe of Ts to hang out with every week and get recharged 😃

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:22 PM EDT

BroCstart May 4 @ 9:23 PM EDT

@KelleyJAndrews Nice! That might make an appearence in my class too! #scitlap

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:23 PM EDT

@daleyscience Don’t worry, I am creative in where I display work! Not the least of which is Twitter! #scitlap

quilterliz May 4 @ 9:24 PM EDT

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:25 PM EDT

A4 Light bulb moment - time to go to a new position next year. It’s all good! #scitlap

daleyscience - Moderator May 4 @ 9:25 PM EDT

A4 I agree with @BroCstart #scitlap has been my lightbulb, along with #hacklearning #tlap and #superyoufun

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:26 PM EDT

BroCstart May 4 @ 9:27 PM EDT

@SueAtSea would be glad to. I never know what to ask about ! #scitlap

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:28 PM EDT

@BroCstart One of us can collaborate w/you or bounce ideas off. #scitlap

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:28 PM EDT

A5 I would advise a new T to go outdoors for science, be messy! #scitlap

cjcrawcooper May 4 @ 9:28 PM EDT

A5: hands on labs to end content ad review games for exams #scitlap

daleyscience - Moderator May 4 @ 9:29 PM EDT

That would be hysterical! (and embarrassing) #scitlap https://t.co/n4AHXNoV7e

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:27 PM EDT

@SarahBosch1 @daleyscience @Partain_Science We should take pictures of our supply closets tomorrow and share. May is the worst! #scitlap

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:30 PM EDT

Q6 What are you “hungry” for more of in your school or career? #scitlap https://t.co/WmgBARYAGL

SarahBosch1 May 4 @ 9:30 PM EDT

@daleyscience @SueAtSea @Partain_Science I'm so in! But I have a sub. I will send post sub messy room pics. #scitlap

BroCstart May 4 @ 9:30 PM EDT

Messy is good. My 7 gr ss love turning compost! #scitlap And double heart on going outside!

Partain_Science - Moderator May 4 @ 9:30 PM EDT

@SueAtSea @SarahBosch1 @daleyscience this would be a riot! I'm totally in!! #scitlap

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:30 PM EDT

@Partain_Science @SarahBosch1 @daleyscience YAY! We are too fun! #scitlap

SarahBosch1 May 4 @ 9:31 PM EDT

@quilterliz so many great things! #scitlap

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:31 PM EDT

@Partain_Science @SarahBosch1 @daleyscience I will have my students judge and throw in a prize! #scitlap

BroCstart May 4 @ 9:31 PM EDT

A6 #scitlap time to reflect, to assess ss learning better, collaboration across disciples

quilterliz May 4 @ 9:32 PM EDT

@SueAtSea @cjcrawcooper we tried Kahoot teams last week, great fun! #scitlap

A6 Ditto on reflecting. I also want more time for designing stuff! #scitlap

SarahBosch1 May 4 @ 9:32 PM EDT

A6: Hungry for Gamification #XPlap and #scitlap and want to try breakoutedu

SarahBosch1 May 4 @ 9:33 PM EDT

I would love time to blog and reflect #scitlap

Partain_Science - Moderator May 4 @ 9:33 PM EDT

My history T friend is doing cool review for STAAR using Jenga. I thought it was an awesome idea! #scitlap

daleyscience - Moderator May 4 @ 9:33 PM EDT

A5 Don't stop. Keep going, but keep it light and fun. Do high interest activities and let them be a little independent. #scitlap

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:33 PM EDT

@SarahBosch1 I will have to learn about breakoutedu. I just started Quizlet Live last week. 1 thing at a time! #scitlap

BroCstart May 4 @ 9:33 PM EDT

@SarahBosch1 ditto on the #xplap . #scitlap

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:34 PM EDT

@Partain_Science I’d love to know how Jenga is incorporated! Wrong answer - take one out! #scitlap

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:34 PM EDT

A5 also just ENJOY the kids! Not much time left w/ them! #scitlap

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:34 PM EDT

Meep! Q7 coming up! #scitlap

jdeinhammer May 4 @ 9:34 PM EDT

@SueAtSea @SarahBosch1 I keep hearing about breakout ---fun? Expensive? #scitlap

quilterliz May 4 @ 9:35 PM EDT

@mpilakow @tishrich @mrmatera school is not paying, I am.#scitlap

daleyscience - Moderator May 4 @ 9:35 PM EDT

A6. My first reaction was time. But really, less paperwork, meetings, and stuff I have to do that's not teaching. #scitlap

cjcrawcooper May 4 @ 9:36 PM EDT

A6: now I want to learn about breakout edu #scitlap

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:36 PM EDT

Q7 What part of your class needs the ER before next year? #scitlap https://t.co/72t15dmQdy

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:36 PM EDT

@daleyscience BOOM! Isn’t it a shame so much time for all that minutae. #scitlap

BroCstart May 4 @ 9:36 PM EDT

@jdeinhammer very fun. Physical lock set up a little pricy, but games free, and there is an online version as well #scitlap

Partain_Science - Moderator May 4 @ 9:37 PM EDT

@SueAtSea Yes but also pts. You always take one out. Pt for getting right, pt for putting on top? Have to ask @MsHallschool #scitlap

GruntledChalkie May 4 @ 9:37 PM EDT

A7) The air conditioner #scitlap

daleyscience - Moderator May 4 @ 9:37 PM EDT

@SueAtSea Super frustrated with 6 days of testing this week and next. #boo #scitlap

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:37 PM EDT

@GruntledChalkie HA! My whole district would agree with you! #scitlap

quilterliz May 4 @ 9:38 PM EDT

@SarahBosch1 need more planning time!#scitlap

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:38 PM EDT

@daleyscience 6 oooh. We had 5 spread out over 2+ weeks. But it’s over! #scitlap

BroCstart May 4 @ 9:38 PM EDT

A7 #scitlap assessment. Or rather, integrating that into the classroom activities and projects

GruntledChalkie May 4 @ 9:38 PM EDT

@SueAtSea To be honest class is going great but physical surroundings get Ss down at times (eg: light, heat, ventilation) #scitlap

cjcrawcooper May 4 @ 9:38 PM EDT

A7:a better way to do quiz retakes (may have chrome books to solve this) #scitlap

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:39 PM EDT

A7 My paper management needs the ER - stat. I try to put as much as I can on line! #scitlap

quilterliz May 4 @ 9:39 PM EDT

@SueAtSea @SarahBosch1 try quizzical to, different type of competition, student interaction #scitlap

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:39 PM EDT

@GruntledChalkie All of our buildings are very old, too. But we try to make it cheerful #scitlap

BroCstart May 4 @ 9:39 PM EDT

@GruntledChalkie yes! #scitlap hate having to choose between physical comfort and ss being able to communicate.

GruntledChalkie May 4 @ 9:40 PM EDT

@SueAtSea How hot does it get there? We had 38C days with the wall full of windows facing teh sun #scitlap

quilterliz May 4 @ 9:40 PM EDT

@daleyscience @SueAtSea same here, lost my prep 5 days!#scitlap

daleyscience - Moderator May 4 @ 9:40 PM EDT

A7 Hands down....grading. Ps and Ss obsessing over grades...how to incorporate #ttog and make it all work for everyone! #scitlap

Partain_Science - Moderator May 4 @ 9:40 PM EDT

@GruntledChalkie @SueAtSea That is super hard b/c sometimes it is so hard to change the physical setup of room. #scitlap

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:40 PM EDT

@GruntledChalkie Oh my - not too bad now, but no matter the season, you are either freezing or roasting. we get into the 90’s #scitlap

BroCstart May 4 @ 9:41 PM EDT

A7.b #scitlap need another set of chromebooks. 30 cb for 70 ss isn't cutting it #scitlap

BroCstart May 4 @ 9:41 PM EDT

A7.b #scitlap need another set of chromebooks. 30 cb for 70 ss isn't cutting it #scitlap

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:41 PM EDT

Q8 Who would you be most likely to get in trouble with: Dist admin, fire marshall, or health dept? #scitlap https://t.co/vv9163tccZ

GruntledChalkie May 4 @ 9:41 PM EDT

@Partain_Science @SueAtSea Yeah, not something in teh T control. Maybe if I'm whining about that it means I have a great class #scitlap

quilterliz May 4 @ 9:41 PM EDT

@jdeinhammer @SueAtSea @SarahBosch1 $99 for one kit with box, locks, etc. And free access to games on web. A good start!#scitlap

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:41 PM EDT

@daleyscience I read today, don’t sacrifice curiosity at the altar of achievement / grades. Turns kids off to learning. #scitlap

GruntledChalkie May 4 @ 9:41 PM EDT

@BroCstart or breathe #scitlap

BroCstart May 4 @ 9:41 PM EDT

A8 #scitlap depends on the day...

daleyscience - Moderator May 4 @ 9:42 PM EDT

Breakout Edu looks fun, but don't be afraid to design your own game! We are all pirates!!! #scitlap

cjcrawcooper May 4 @ 9:42 PM EDT

@daleyscience the downside to online grade book Ss and Ps get way to tense over trees and don't see forest #scitlap

quilterliz May 4 @ 9:42 PM EDT

@SueAtSea health dept, if we have food in the lab?#scitlap

Partain_Science - Moderator May 4 @ 9:43 PM EDT

I really want to try some gamification but I'm having such a hard time getting my head around making this work for me. #scitlap

GruntledChalkie May 4 @ 9:43 PM EDT

A8) the admin I'm always taking "innovative" risks. Not always appreciated by those more conservative than I #scitlap

daleyscience - Moderator May 4 @ 9:43 PM EDT

@SueAtSea agree! #scitlap

BroCstart May 4 @ 9:43 PM EDT

@SueAtSea @daleyscience so hard to push back against grade-obsession. I've been getting flack for not using grades as carrot/stick #scitlap

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:43 PM EDT

A8 Mine would be fire marshall. I teach magma! igneous! Volcanoes! And I melt glass as a hobby! #scitlap

Partain_Science - Moderator May 4 @ 9:43 PM EDT

A8: Fire Marshall! #scitlap

quilterliz May 4 @ 9:43 PM EDT

@daleyscience agree, all about points, project descriptions, following a rubric. Need more imagination! #scitlap

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:44 PM EDT

@BroCstart @daleyscience But do the kids love learning? That is the main thing. #scitlap

cjcrawcooper May 4 @ 9:44 PM EDT

a8:fire marshal hanging subatomic particle models from ceiling is so fun #scitlap

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:44 PM EDT

@cjcrawcooper Aren;t you allowed to hang stuff? I have projects hanging from mine. #scitlap

BroCstart May 4 @ 9:45 PM EDT

@SueAtSea @daleyscience most of my ss enjoy sci because I don't stress grades. #scitlap

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:46 PM EDT

@BroCstart @daleyscience I make a point to TELL them I want them to focus on learning, and enjoy it. Most do. Ps harder to sway. #scitlap

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:46 PM EDT

Q9 IS there anything old-school that you just can’t give up? #scitlap https://t.co/6emtKR2OCO

GruntledChalkie May 4 @ 9:46 PM EDT

@BroCstart @SueAtSea @daleyscience Sometimes I do things so we can explore and don't grade it at all. Some Ss are amazed I do this #scitlap

BroCstart May 4 @ 9:46 PM EDT

A8.b #scitlap fire marshal yesterday. Convection box w candle inside... made of cardboard...& burning taper above it.... #scitlap

BroCstart May 4 @ 9:46 PM EDT

PerkyScience May 4 @ 9:47 PM EDT

A9 Dissections. Students look forward to them all year! #scitlap

daleyscience - Moderator May 4 @ 9:47 PM EDT

A8 As per earlier conversation....Fire Marshall. 🚒 #scitlap

GruntledChalkie May 4 @ 9:47 PM EDT

I set the roof on fire once. Only once but. I was getting Ss to look at which material could be used for fire retardant clothes #scitlap

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:47 PM EDT

@GruntledChalkie I do this with walks to our park to observe erosion patterns, hunt for specific rocks. They remember forever! #scitlap

BroCstart May 4 @ 9:47 PM EDT

@SueAtSea @daleyscience admin gets nervous at how thin my grade book is but can't argue w quality of activities & ss engagement #scitlap

cjcrawcooper May 4 @ 9:48 PM EDT

@PerkyScience w/ you on this Ss always give these the highest marks on evals #scitlap

GruntledChalkie May 4 @ 9:48 PM EDT

A9) I guess telling stories (so that's the T doing the talking). I love telling storie sto Ss #scitlap

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:48 PM EDT

@lorigreentx @Partain_Science Please join us any Wednesday - be have about 10 minutes left! #scitlap

BroCstart May 4 @ 9:49 PM EDT

A9 #scitlap pencil and notebook and coloring utensils. There is something about writing things out to get the brain engaged!

GruntledChalkie May 4 @ 9:49 PM EDT

@SueAtSea We need better rooks here. School is build on what was a river plain but has been filled. #scitlap

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:49 PM EDT

A9 I have a hard time giving up a T desk. I know that is the rage now, but I’m not there yet. #scitlap

quilterliz May 4 @ 9:50 PM EDT

@daleyscience my A & P class is making a breakout game for my other classes for bonus! #scitlap

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:50 PM EDT

@GruntledChalkie Lucky us - 1/4 mile from a huge park, lake, stream, nature preserve! #scitlap

@GruntledChalkie I think stories can help link the curriculum to real life. Light bulbs come on when Ss see how their stories fit. #scitlap

@Partain_Science I am doing a 1 day lesson-- Ss rover crashed on Mars and have to decide which supplies to take back to the module #scitlap

BroCstart May 4 @ 9:50 PM EDT

@SueAtSea I am on the fence on this too. I want a smaller desk, but I need my own space somewhere at work #scitlap

Partain_Science - Moderator May 4 @ 9:51 PM EDT

@quilterliz Honestly don't feel like I play enough games to know what would be appealing. Typical quest idea has zero appeal to me #scitlap

PerkyScience May 4 @ 9:51 PM EDT

@SueAtSea I gave up my desk this year. I am really liking it. It is empowering to find out how much I can do without. #scitlap

lorigreentx May 4 @ 9:51 PM EDT

@Partain_Science focus is on need for a gas exchange system, and I set up my room like its space-- I'll post pics tomorrow #scitlap

quilterliz May 4 @ 9:51 PM EDT

Lab critical thinking questions, pencil/paper #scitlap

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:51 PM EDT

@Partain_Science @quilterliz I don’t know much about this -you mean a web quest? Ive done those. #scitlap

GruntledChalkie May 4 @ 9:52 PM EDT

@SueAtSea We got national park near us . I use for biology and environment but geology is not great. Still use what you can #scitlap

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:52 PM EDT

@lorigreentx @Partain_Science I made my doorway a black hole to enter through in January. Ss loved! #scitlap

As my principal tells me, it's about the pebbles. Not everyone likes risks right away. #scitlap https://t.co/dxi5QtdegY

GruntledChalkie May 4 @ 9:43 PM EDT

A8) the admin I'm always taking "innovative" risks. Not always appreciated by those more conservative than I #scitlap

BroCstart May 4 @ 9:52 PM EDT

@Partain_Science @quilterliz I need to see it in action. Like the ieea, but concerned it would take too much e energy to run it #scitlap

Partain_Science - Moderator May 4 @ 9:52 PM EDT

@SueAtSea @quilterliz No, more like role playing gamification. #scitlap

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:52 PM EDT

@GruntledChalkie OOOh which one? I love NPS. Going to 2 in a month! #scitlap

PerkyScience May 4 @ 9:53 PM EDT

@BroCstart @SueAtSea I have a table for students and me to work at. It is an area that is dedicated to work, not to me. #scitlap

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:53 PM EDT

Q10 Share a life lesson you were able to share with your Ss this year. #scitlap https://t.co/ZSJeKGNW9J

quilterliz May 4 @ 9:53 PM EDT

@Partain_Science more like a unit - long quest #scitlap

cjcrawcooper May 4 @ 9:53 PM EDT

@BroCstart @SueAtSea I want a conference table to replace desk extra team meeting space esp. During wet labs #scitlap

GruntledChalkie May 4 @ 9:53 PM EDT

@PerkyScience And they remember stories #scitlap Pretty sure Herschel would sue me for slander if he was alive But good story #scitlap

GruntledChalkie May 4 @ 9:53 PM EDT

@PerkyScience And they remember stories #scitlap Pretty sure Herschel would sue me for slander if he was alive But good story #scitlap

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:53 PM EDT

@quilterliz Will have to read XPLAP #scitlap

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:54 PM EDT

A10 oh yes they love stories. And they have schadenfreude so they learn lessons there! 1/2 #scitlap

BroCstart May 4 @ 9:54 PM EDT

@PerkyScience #scitlap right, makes sense. My room will get a redesign this summer. Want stations set up. T desk takes up too much room

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:55 PM EDT

a10 to include: Anything > $500 damage is a felony; if you are a bully it will haunt you for decades. #scitlap

Partain_Science - Moderator May 4 @ 9:55 PM EDT

@BroCstart @quilterliz I need to see it too. Someone who isn't a gamer at all so I could internalize & put my spin on it. #scitlap

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:56 PM EDT

Great sharing tonight! Can’t believe the hour is almost up! #scitlap

KatSpea May 4 @ 9:56 PM EDT

@Partain_Science I started with @classcraftgame and am getting ready to gamify my class even more next year. #Scitlap

BroCstart May 4 @ 9:56 PM EDT

A10 #scitlap constantly modeling failed lsn ideas and getting g back up. Apologizing for when I'm in the wrong, smiling every a.m.!

quilterliz May 4 @ 9:56 PM EDT

@quilterliz A9 #scitlap

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:56 PM EDT

@BroCstart @PerkyScience I’m kind of over lab tables, too. Wish I had half dozen conf tables instead! #scitlap

PerkyScience May 4 @ 9:56 PM EDT

@BroCstart You will love it. For me it pushes me to be more creative in other ways. Without a desk chasing paper isn't an option. #scitlap

daleyscience - Moderator May 4 @ 9:56 PM EDT

A10 My life lesson that I like to share is about not learning study skills as a kid. Made college extremely hard! #scitlap

BroCstart May 4 @ 9:57 PM EDT

@Partain_Science 8 grew up a gamer, but not sure how to create reframe whole unit, courses as a system of quests #scitlap #xplap

quilterliz May 4 @ 9:57 PM EDT

@SueAtSea it was interesting. But I would need lots of time even to do one lesson. I need to think about it.#scitlap

PerkyScience May 4 @ 9:58 PM EDT

@SueAtSea @BroCstart I like lab tables for Ss to write on with dry erase markers to show learning. Add stop motion for a win. #scitlap

GruntledChalkie May 4 @ 9:58 PM EDT

A10) As an alpaca farmer pretty much anything i do with alpacas. #scitlap

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:58 PM EDT

@GruntledChalkie My biggest bucket list trip! w/in 5 years I am there! #scitlap

GruntledChalkie May 4 @ 9:58 PM EDT

@SueAtSea We live near it. Drop in when you do. #scitlap

Partain_Science - Moderator May 4 @ 9:58 PM EDT

@KatSpea @classcraftgame I tried that last year but wasn't great.Think it was mostly me..couldn't get into the avatars, powers #scitlap

SueAtSea May 4 @ 9:59 PM EDT

@BroCstart They are 11 “delight in the misfortune of others” - or at least, it really grabs their attention! #scitlap

BroCstart May 4 @ 9:59 PM EDT

@PerkyScience brilliant ideas. #scitlap
