Chicken wraps! Christi teaching chemistry/ DC bio in CHS, SC #scitlap

A1: Ss made their own class contracts, and I stayed quiet during their discussions. Set the tone for each class being a "family." #scitlap

Fave school lunch? Eeks... I don't think I have one lol Jesse, bio teacher from NJ #scitlap

Stella_Pollard Aug 30 @ 9:08 PM EDT

A1: Gamifying my classroom! The students love the idea of earning “badges” and gaining XP. #scitlap

daleyscience - Moderator Aug 30 @ 9:08 PM EDT

A1 Day 2...had an excellent scavenger hunt and discussion today. Great kids who want to help ME learn, how exciting is that! #scitlap

ashleyn627 Aug 30 @ 9:09 PM EDT

A1: I introduce STEM to the Ss and have them consider what a good scientist/mathematician looks like & how they can become one. #scitlap

sbosch_spps Aug 30 @ 9:09 PM EDT

A1: Play-Doh is my favorite first day activity. Works with K, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. Their hands are busy and I can talk to every kid #scitlap

Q2: I’m teaching science safety, and I bet you are too. Do you have a favorite method? How much time do you spend on safety? #scitlap

Stella_Pollard Aug 30 @ 9:12 PM EDT

Yes! On boarding is so much fun. I didn’t start the game off by throwing tons and tons of information at them. It has to be built. #scitlap

A1: I love visiting our families before school starts, I know 13/24 students and families already! #scitlap

sbosch_spps Aug 30 @ 9:12 PM EDT

Yes. Do they show a lot of stereotypes? Last time I tried my students just drew people. I didn't get much to work with. #scitlap

In reply to @MrsDamianoWH, @ashleyn627

PerkyScience Aug 30 @ 9:12 PM EDT

I started this as well. It was great to see Ls faces light up when they realized class was a game. We need to share resources. #scitlap

A2 I have Ss make safety posters in groups that I post for the entire year in class. #scitlap 1/2

Enchilada Wednesday is very, very popular at my school but I'm not partial to them (or any enchiladas). #blasphemy #scitlap

sbosch_spps Aug 30 @ 9:13 PM EDT

There's a lab safety one? What is the name? I was sharing my @breakoutEDU kit with teachers today. #scitlap

In reply to @megan_hacholski, @breakoutEDU, @mrwilliamssteam, @breakoutEDU

MrMooreIII Aug 30 @ 9:13 PM EDT

A1: I used a #tlap strategy and acted out a plane crash. The kids thought it was insane and hilarious. They loosened right up. #scitlap

megan_hacholski Aug 30 @ 9:13 PM EDT

A2: 1st yr teaching, made a music vid for Call Me Maybe, lyrics about lab safety. Thinking we need to do it again, but new song! #scitlap

sbosch_spps Aug 30 @ 9:14 PM EDT

A2: I always practice fire drills and lock down drills. I like the students to be prepared before they happen. #scitlap

burgessdave Aug 30 @ 9:14 PM EDT

A2: Could be fun possibilities of teaching safety with a spoof similar to Jim Carrey doing Fire Marshal Bill on In Living Color #scitlap

ashleyn627 Aug 30 @ 9:14 PM EDT

Starts out that way. Ss don't consider themselves as STEM people or how their active participation and growth mindset plays a role. #scitlap

In reply to @sbosch_spps, @MrsDamianoWH

pentaclethra Aug 30 @ 9:15 PM EDT

A2 I also have Rotts Tribice (me in costume) come in a do lots of unsafe things that Ss then describe back to me on my return. #scitlap

principessaAKH Aug 30 @ 9:15 PM EDT

A2: Safety,responsibility and respect take up most of my first 6 weeks and a lot after that. Kinders need lots of reminders! #scitlap

BKd204Sci Aug 30 @ 9:15 PM EDT

A2j I use the common sense method, think before you do in 1 day, I reinforce safety with each lab/activity #scitlap

In reply to @sbosch_spps

cjcrawcooper Aug 30 @ 9:15 PM EDT

It was a simple observation lab with "teabags" of CuCl2 in water and they had to draw particle diagrams and record observations #scitlap

In reply to @MrsDamianoWH

SciTeach7Davis - Moderator Aug 30 @ 9:15 PM EDT

A2) not much. Maybe need to do more. I give a safety tour of the lab. Made a corny video once, but ditched it. #scitlap

ashleyn627 Aug 30 @ 9:16 PM EDT

A2 teaching fifth grade without a lab so don't spend much, if any time on safety. Realizing I probably should add in something! #scitlap

Partain_Science - Moderator Aug 30 @ 9:16 PM EDT

A1: Done playdough 2 yrs & I'm always a little disappointed that Ss aren't more creative.Think they don't want to risk it. #scitlap

cjcrawcooper Aug 30 @ 9:16 PM EDT

A2: We do the lab safety POGIL and a FLINN or Amoeba sister video #scitlap

A3 Same. Lab tables are not movable and student tables are moved a few times a year into different arrangements. #scitlap

daleyscience - Moderator Aug 30 @ 9:21 PM EDT

A2 I did a little with safety symbols and emergency equipment today, but I mostly do it as I go....don't do a stand alone Unit. #scitlap

BKd204Sci Aug 30 @ 9:21 PM EDT

A3 I am going to be more flexible to how Ss use our space Structure for them, but choice & voice to keep them involved #scitlap

Yep. Mainly integrating with @classcraftgame but side quests and such of my own design. Thanks as always for the support. #scitlap

Yes liked flipped. I'd call it blended learning. I don't assign homework. So they will watch video directions and go at own speed. #scitlap
