Intro yourself & UR location,UR position. We R talking about taking science outside #elngsschat

KRScienceLady - Moderator Jun 9 @ 8:03 PM EDT

Kathy from cloudy,dismal and cold Vermont ,a self-named #NGSS groupie! #elngsschat

leeanna_hooper Jun 9 @ 8:03 PM EDT

Welcome everyone! Looking forward to chatting about taking NGSS outside tonight. I'm LeeAnna Hooper from Penn State! #elngsschat

KRScienceLady - Moderator Jun 9 @ 8:07 PM EDT

What science have you done outside before #NGSS? #elngsschat

KRScienceLady - Moderator Jun 9 @ 8:08 PM EDT

When I was N classroom, I loved doing Adopt A Square, where Ss would look at living & non-living things in their assigned space. #elngsschat

kkidsinvt Jun 9 @ 8:08 PM EDT

@KRScienceLady #elngsschat Lots of inquiry. Setting up questions to investigate. I wonder...

KRScienceLady - Moderator Jun 9 @ 8:10 PM EDT

Thinking #NGSS, what PEs seem to lend themselves to outside investigations? #elngsschat

leeanna_hooper Jun 9 @ 8:10 PM EDT

My 2nd graders worked on a unit where we would always go outside to explore forces on the playground #elngsschat https://t.co/wUzSAcMaDC

leeanna_hooper Jun 9 @ 8:14 PM EDT

Earth's systems is a great NGSS standard to take outside. Ss can investigate how different spheres interact. #elngsschat

KRScienceLady - Moderator Jun 9 @ 8:16 PM EDT

Construct argument w evidence that N particular habitat some organisms survive well,some survive less well,& some can't survive. #elngsschat

leeanna_hooper Jun 9 @ 8:16 PM EDT

Forces and interactions is another great standard that can be taken outside. #elngsschat

KRScienceLady - Moderator Jun 9 @ 8:18 PM EDT

What role does phenomena play N taking #NGSS outside #elngsschat

STEM_Play Jun 9 @ 8:18 PM EDT

Changing seasons is always a perfect time to teach Ss to observe. #elngsschat

kkidsinvt Jun 9 @ 8:20 PM EDT

@KRScienceLady #elngsschat Thinking it offers opportunities to think about what the problem/? is. How it came to be, what is the cause?

leeanna_hooper Jun 9 @ 8:22 PM EDT

The best phenomena is from outside. Hissing cockroaches, a great way to engage Ss in asking questions. #elngsschat https://t.co/4KEKYF5X8K

KRScienceLady - Moderator Jun 9 @ 8:25 PM EDT

I like thinking about a tree being a phenomenon #elngsschat

#elngsschat How does taking NGSS outside make/ change your students wonderings?

kkidsinvt Jun 9 @ 8:32 PM EDT

@mrterborg #globaledchat #elngsschat Yes, this is great & works well because it is around a community based need which offers collaboration.

leeanna_hooper Jun 9 @ 8:36 PM EDT

Ss are naturally curious and wonder about the world. Taking NGSS outside lets them explore and figure out how the world works. #elngsschat

kathytsadler Jun 9 @ 8:36 PM EDT

#elngsschat so many more possibilities to collect insects. See habitats. Inquire. Wonder. Notice https://t.co/HpvvOv9tmU

#elngsschat How do you document student thinking when taking NGSS outside?

STEM_Play Jun 9 @ 8:37 PM EDT

@KRScienceLady Science isn't just in the classroom, it's everywhere! Teach Ss 2 find science in what surrounds them! #elngsschat

kathytsadler Jun 9 @ 8:37 PM EDT

@TerriSm24538207 need your input about how to bring NGSS outside #elngsschat

leeanna_hooper Jun 9 @ 8:38 PM EDT

Finding the right phenomenon allows for those wonderings to come out in your lesson. #elngsschat https://t.co/PXpirOfBZK

kathytsadler Jun 9 @ 8:38 PM EDT

Science notebooks. Journals. Taking photographs #elngsschat

leeanna_hooper Jun 9 @ 8:39 PM EDT

Technology helps with this! Taking pictures and bringing them into the classroom works well. #elngsschat https://t.co/ldFgeHRGTf

#elngsschat How do you document student thinking when taking NGSS outside?

leeanna_hooper Jun 9 @ 8:39 PM EDT

@kathytsadler Yes, science notebooks are prefect! They will travel anywhere! #elngsschat

STEM_Play Jun 9 @ 8:40 PM EDT

@kathytsadler Absolutely. A book is good, but to see the real thing is even better! #elngsschat

kkidsinvt Jun 9 @ 8:40 PM EDT

@leeanna_hooper #elngsschat Also @SkypeClassroom is a great resource to use to connect with experts.

KRScienceLady - Moderator Jun 9 @ 8:42 PM EDT

#elngsschat What authentic learning opportunities have you found taking NGSS outside?

leeanna_hooper Jun 9 @ 8:43 PM EDT

@kkidsinvt @SkypeClassroom This is a excellent resource! Ss love connecting with science experts #elngsschat

STEM_Play Jun 9 @ 8:43 PM EDT

@kathytsadler Notes & good records are a HUGE part of being a successful scientist. Teach it early, the skills will stick! #elngsschat

KRScienceLady - Moderator Jun 9 @ 8:45 PM EDT

We studied trees as ecosystem.Every child adopted a tree,we visited seasonally & talked about as system.I was ahead of my time #elngsschat

danie11e1 Jun 9 @ 8:45 PM EDT

Did I miss it all? Does this chat end at 9? #elngsschat

leeanna_hooper Jun 9 @ 8:46 PM EDT

My colleagues worked on water quality with 6th graders. Samples came from the lake near the school #elngsschat https://t.co/whHYkJ3nzB

STEM_Play Jun 9 @ 8:47 PM EDT

@KRScienceLady I always say you don't need fancy equipment to do science. You can learn so much from just a tree (or forest!). #elngsschat

danie11e1 Jun 9 @ 8:47 PM EDT

We just took our students on a geology hike. #elngsschat

danie11e1 Jun 9 @ 8:48 PM EDT

I am looking for some good geology trade books to compliment 4th grade NGSS #elngsschat

KRScienceLady - Moderator Jun 9 @ 8:49 PM EDT

What things did Ss notice? #elngsschat https://t.co/qY0ygiDhko

danie11e1 Jun 9 @ 8:47 PM EDT

leeanna_hooper Jun 9 @ 8:49 PM EDT

@danie11e1 Loved doing that as a sixth grade teacher! #elngsschat

STEM_Play Jun 9 @ 8:49 PM EDT

@danie11e1 Scientific discovery AND exercise. It's a WIN-WIN! #elngsschat

kkidsinvt Jun 9 @ 8:49 PM EDT

@KRScienceLady #elngsschat Loved Blackout as way to introduce the idea of energy/impact.Thinking about resourcefulness,careful of resources

kathytsadler Jun 9 @ 8:50 PM EDT

Lots of Picture Perfect science books can be used. #elngsschat https://t.co/wg3FvKlFAs

@KRScienceLady We were led by a ranger. We compared two massive rocks one formed by lava and the other by eroding sediment. #elngsschat

Solar ovens - light energy, waves, gets us outside. My Light by Molly Bang, my fav #elngsschat

KRScienceLady - Moderator Jun 9 @ 8:52 PM EDT

Another great resource for Picture books for NGSS is Perfect Pairs by @mstewartscience #elngsschat

KRScienceLady - Moderator Jun 9 @ 8:52 PM EDT

I will have to get that one for my collection. #elngsschat https://t.co/UbuyPtWHpZ

@danie11e1 @KRScienceLady I bet the kids were excited about the lava rock. Volcanoes are cool to kids.#elngsschat

KRScienceLady - Moderator Jun 9 @ 8:53 PM EDT

Electrical Wizard is another fave . it is an NSTA Outstanding tradebook. I used it with energy instructional e=sequence #elngsschat

danie11e1 Jun 9 @ 8:54 PM EDT

@kkidsinvt Ooh I don't know this one. I'll have to try. Energy Island is a good one too. #elngsschat

What would you like to see #elngsschat talk about? Love new ideas!

danie11e1 Jun 9 @ 8:57 PM EDT

@KRScienceLady I would love to see one about the concept of modeling in science, an area I'd like to improve in #elngsschat

kathytsadler Jun 9 @ 8:58 PM EDT

I would love to connect with other teachers about creating performance tasks as formative assessments for the PE's. #elngsschat #ngsschat
