Please intro yourself. What are your summer plans? What time are you taking for yourself? #elngsschat

starrscience - Moderator Jun 23 @ 8:01 PM EDT

Good evening everyone. Wondering if you got a chance to watch the PBS video https://t.co/MxZ4ovPjiy #elngsschat

kmgill135 Jun 23 @ 8:04 PM EDT

Kathy from CA. Summer plans include reading and exercising. #elngsschat

starrscience - Moderator Jun 23 @ 8:04 PM EDT

Comment from the PBS video - "Science education will never receive the amount of school time which its supporters would like.” #elngsschat

starrscience - Moderator Jun 23 @ 8:05 PM EDT

@kmgill135 Hi Kathy - thanks for coming. Hope the weather is good for your exercising! #elngsschat

bickd Jun 23 @ 8:05 PM EDT

#elngsschat Hi Everyone! My name is Dawn. I teach K-5 science in Indy. I'm head over heels in PD this summer.

starrscience - Moderator Jun 23 @ 8:05 PM EDT

What do you think? Science education will never receive the amount of school time which its supporters would like. #elngsschat

kmgill135 Jun 23 @ 8:05 PM EDT

One of my summer goals is to write assessments for many 4th and 5th grade standards. #elngsschat

starrscience - Moderator Jun 23 @ 8:06 PM EDT

Hi Dawn! What type of PD are you doing. Thanks for coming #elngsschat

bickd Jun 23 @ 8:07 PM EDT

@starrscience #elngsschat Differented Instruction, STEM, one at the Children's Museum about space....

bickd Jun 23 @ 8:08 PM EDT

@starrscience No I didn't watch this yet. I will though. Thanks for sharing. #elngsschat

starrscience - Moderator Jun 23 @ 8:08 PM EDT

I actually learned more from the comments than from the video. #elngsschat

starrscience - Moderator Jun 23 @ 8:09 PM EDT

This one is interesting "Science education will never receive the amount of school time which its supporters would like.” #elngsschat

bickd Jun 23 @ 8:09 PM EDT

#elngsschat Still trying to put my IN elem standards and NGSS together in a meaningful way. Spent hours on it today.

@starrscience Totally true. I wish I had my Ss every day. I never have enough time. #elngsschat

kmgill135 Jun 23 @ 8:11 PM EDT

The news segment put a positive light on NGSS. Good to emphasize the "doing science" #elngsschat

starrscience - Moderator Jun 23 @ 8:11 PM EDT

@bickd Do you have a group you are working with - hard to do alone! #elngsschat

bickd Jun 23 @ 8:11 PM EDT

#elngsschat Also want to know how to differentiate in elem science more. Biting off a lot this year!

starrscience - Moderator Jun 23 @ 8:11 PM EDT

@kmgill135 One of the comments was that the activity shown wasn’t really “doing science” - what do you think? #elngsschat

kmgill135 Jun 23 @ 8:12 PM EDT

Unfortunately, it did not mention the big change-asking STUDENTS to make sense of scientific phenomena. #elngsschat

starrscience - Moderator Jun 23 @ 8:12 PM EDT

@bickd That is A LOT! Go easy on yourself! #elngsschat

bickd Jun 23 @ 8:12 PM EDT

@starrscience I'm the elem science dept at my school. Only one that Ts elem science. I am trying to hook up with @KRScienceLady. #elngsschat

starrscience - Moderator Jun 23 @ 8:13 PM EDT

@kmgill135 Yes. I thought that was disappointing too. Might make the case for science! #elngsschat

starrscience - Moderator Jun 23 @ 8:13 PM EDT

@bickd @KRScienceLady Would be an excellent choice! #elngsschat

bickd Jun 23 @ 8:14 PM EDT

@starrscience @KRScienceLady If you have any ideas, I'll take them. #elngsschat

starrscience - Moderator Jun 23 @ 8:14 PM EDT

#elngsschat Have you used STEM Teaching Tools? Which do you think are most useful?

bickd Jun 23 @ 8:15 PM EDT

@starrscience When does this chat start? #elngsschat

starrscience - Moderator Jun 23 @ 8:15 PM EDT

My idea is to keep it simple. Phenomena don’t have to be phenomenal #elngsschat https://t.co/Kg7VJv0V6U

@starrscience @KRScienceLady If you have any ideas, I'll take them. #elngsschat

kmgill135 Jun 23 @ 8:15 PM EDT

@starrscience Use all of them. Like the links to resources. #elngsschat

starrscience - Moderator Jun 23 @ 8:15 PM EDT

@bickd We usually start at 8 eastern. Summer has been a little low on collaboration! #elngsschat

bickd Jun 23 @ 8:16 PM EDT

@starrscience I try to incorporate STEM with having Ss design their own things, ie bird houses, roller coasters, cars #elngsschat

starrscience - Moderator Jun 23 @ 8:16 PM EDT

@kmgill135 I’m sharing them with new teachers tomorrow. Seeking some advice on where to start! #elngsschat

bickd Jun 23 @ 8:17 PM EDT

@kmgill135 @starrscience #elngsschat Where are the links?

kmgill135 Jun 23 @ 8:19 PM EDT

I always start with the ones about practices. That is the big change with NGSS, not the content. #elngsschat

We explore pendulums. I specifically set up investigation so that the Ss see a pattern on the graph 1/3 elngsschat https://t.co/2C7zA4h5Dh

kmgill135 Jun 23 @ 8:25 PM EDT

@bickd Have 3 years of NGSS experience. My classroom used to be "activity-mania" Now it revolves around sense-making #elngsschat

starrscience - Moderator Jun 23 @ 8:25 PM EDT

Then we use the pattern they see to ask questions about the motion of the pendulum, then 2/3 #elngsschat https://t.co/2C7zA4h5Dh

@starrscience Can you give me an example? #elngsschat

bickd Jun 23 @ 8:25 PM EDT

@kmgill135 What made the difference? #elngsschat

starrscience - Moderator Jun 23 @ 8:26 PM EDT

then they will plan and carry out an investigation - the Ss do the figuring out and explaining. #elngsschat https://t.co/zPPwvOE7iu

Lots of classroom time spent on making models, sharing models, revising models, creating explanations and arguments. #elngsschat

bickd Jun 23 @ 8:27 PM EDT

#elngsschat Sounds like I'm not too far away from teaching that way. Everything we do is hands on and focus Question driven.

Ted_NSTA Jun 23 @ 8:27 PM EDT

Hi all in #elngsschat land. Ted Willard, director of NGSS@NSTA. Sorry that I'm late.

starrscience - Moderator Jun 23 @ 8:28 PM EDT

Hi Ted! #elngsschat - thanks for coming!

bickd Jun 23 @ 8:28 PM EDT

#elngsschat What if what the Ss are trying to explain is not easily seen in an experiment, like why something happens.

SarahBosch1 Jun 23 @ 8:28 PM EDT

Hi amazing learners. Trying to read along. Children are busy. 2 and 4 year old always busy. #elngsschat

starrscience - Moderator Jun 23 @ 8:29 PM EDT

#elngsschat one big change is really having kids explain phenomenon or answer the question that they investigate https://t.co/5zgCJToSSE

@SarahBosch1 Hi Sarah! Thanks for coming #elngsschat

starrscience - Moderator Jun 23 @ 8:30 PM EDT

@Ted_NSTA We are sort of winging it. @bickd has been asking about transition teaching! #elngsschat

bickd Jun 23 @ 8:30 PM EDT

@starrscience #elngsschat I have making meaning conferences where Ss discuss and then they write their conclusions in their science notebook

SarahBosch1 Jun 23 @ 8:30 PM EDT

Do you mean when a student gets focused on the size of objects even though they are virtually the same? #elngsschat https://t.co/k7qc3ZYf5N

bickd Jun 23 @ 8:28 PM EDT

#elngsschat What if what the Ss are trying to explain is not easily seen in an experiment, like why something happens.

bickd Jun 23 @ 8:31 PM EDT

@SarahBosch1 That or something like how electricity happens, or why questions... hard to experiment on. #elngsschat

bickd Jun 23 @ 8:32 PM EDT

@starrscience @Ted_NSTA don't mean to be monopolizing the chat.just saw an opportunity to ask Q that I don't get answers for #elngsschat

kmgill135 Jun 23 @ 8:32 PM EDT

@bickd Maybe they need additional investigation. Ss usually have some idea why. Get the ideas out and discuss them. #elngsschat

starrscience - Moderator Jun 23 @ 8:33 PM EDT

@bickd @Ted_NSTA We LOVE the questions. Everyone has some! #elngsschat

kmgill135 Jun 23 @ 8:34 PM EDT

Make student thinking visible. As Ss hear others ideas, they revise and augment their own understandings. #elngsschat

bickd Jun 23 @ 8:34 PM EDT

#elngsschat I have curriculum, i have NGSS and my state standards. What do I do now??

starrscience - Moderator Jun 23 @ 8:35 PM EDT

Content needs to be age aprop. in NGSS electricity at the elem. is about effects not explaining process. #elngsschat https://t.co/OxNlrKiP0Q

kmgill135 Jun 23 @ 8:53 PM EDT

@Ted_NSTA #elngsschat This is basically what my simplified version does.

bickd Jun 23 @ 8:54 PM EDT

@starrscience Are we talking about the EQuIP Rubric or something else? #elngsschat

richbacolor Jun 23 @ 8:54 PM EDT

It’s easy to get NGSS overload. 3D planning & teaching can get complicated quickly. So start SMALL and SIMPLE. #elngsschat

Ted_NSTA Jun 23 @ 8:54 PM EDT

Big key in EquIP: The 3Ds work together to support Ss to make sense of phenomena and/or to design solutions to problems. #elngsschat

bickd Jun 23 @ 8:54 PM EDT

@kmgill135 @Ted_NSTA can you share the simplified version? #elngsschat

@richbacolor How do I start small and simple and be effective? #elngsschat

kmgill135 Jun 23 @ 8:55 PM EDT

@starrscience #elngsschat Like Appendix F because it shows what students at your grade level should be DOING.

ngss a whole new workflow, but I like it, been awhile since we were out of our comfort zone #elngsschat
