So how would you define anchoring phenomenon in NGSS instruction?
#elngsschat
kmgill135
Oct 20 @ 8:11 PM EDT
A1: An overarching phenomenon that takes multiple investigations to thoroughly explain.
#elngsschat

Oct 20 @ 8:13 PM EDT
I think of the anchoring phenomenon/focusing question combo as the "anchor"for the ALL the investigations .
#elngsschat

Oct 20 @ 8:15 PM EDT
If all instruction investigations help Ss answer the focusing questions , anchoring phenomenon brings coherence 2 instruction.

Yes. Keep coming back to the anchor and seeing how investigations give you deeper understanding to the phenomena.

(Part 1) In 3D instruction, we don't want to tell kids the science ideas we want them to learn.
#elngsschat
