I'll tell mine if you'll tell yours-While I'm tempted to choose "progressions" because of the maps, I think "phenomena" is the one #ngsschat

krademaker Sep 21 @ 9:54 PM EDT
So Ted, what is your favorite ngss word? We all want to know #ngsschat
- Ted_NSTA Sep 21 @ 9:52 PM EDT
  
  Just realized that an interesting #ngss ice breaker would be to ask participants to pick their favorite ngss word and share why. #ngsschat

a unit gets Ss to figure out phenomenon in a cohesive way with an overarching story/stories. #ngsschat

For design challenges, S reflections on process are more important to me than product. Ss justify redesign decisions, then retest. #NGSSchat

ElemSciTchr Sep 21 @ 9:53 PM EDT
Absolutely, but took time. They needed to learn that "failure" in my class did not equal "failing the class." #NGSSChat

  Need to be reminded of the powerful educational value of failing! @ElemSciTchr #ngsschat

  Initial pushback from Ss & parents. I was new at school & it was a huge culture shift. They were afraid of failing & unknown. #ngsschat

Has anyone tried using 📱Instagram or 📱Snapchat's 🔬Story feature in Science class? #SocialMedia #ELA #NGSSchat

A4: Storylines provide the big picture that allows new teachers (like me!) to stay on track w/ the important concepts to explore #NGSSChat

jenniferj4242 Sep 21 @ 9:58 PM EDT

many cultures take event/theme and weave their storyline around event/theme - not so chronological sequencing think Cloud Atlas #ngsschat

Bundle PEs, look at evidence statements, find anchoring phenomena, consider using 5E learning cycle #ngsschat

A5 I'm thinking more post-classroom, where members of our community understand and value the scientific enterprise #NGSSChat

HiHeelsNTWheels Sep 21 @ 9:58 PM EDT

Coming prepared with ideas and thoughts. Storylines are daunting, but breaking the ice with little phenomena and convos help. #ngsschat

providing Ss with an environment where they feel safe to take risks makes all the difference and is a must for an NGSS classroom #ngsschat

safarnum Sep 21 @ 9:56 PM EDT

We need to remove the threat of being wrong & taking risks. S's are only learning if outside of their comfort zone. Grade for THAT #ngsschat

Everyone keeps talking about mic drops tonight and I'm worried that Mr. Fumagalli will get hurt being dropped so often. #NGSSChat

bet gooby is right #ngsschat

hhereau Sep 21 @ 9:59 PM EDT

Ss develop model incrementally. Students develop Qs that lead to investigations & gain knowledge to develop model #ngsschat
