It's day two in Denver, and educators are having an awesome time touching surfaces to determine whether they're hot! 🔥🌡 #scienceisfun This week, educators nationwide have gathered in Denver to discuss OpenScied's expansion into Elementary Schools! Stay tuned for more updates! 😃 #OpenSciEd #inspirededucators

K-5 science learning is a civil right. NGSS-science is science & engineering yet the average elementary student engages in science learning only 17 min/day. Students deserve well-prepared teachers, high-quality learning materials, and dedicated scheduled daily time for science!

What can children's #play and learning look like with #dioramas? Honored to have our chapter (with @jingber) on teachers' experiences and perspectives in the newly released Play and STEM Education in the Early Years link.springer.com/book/10.10… #museums #STEMeducation #teachers

For people getting used to the vision of the Framework, I highly recommend Helping Students Make Sense of The World With Next Generation Science and Engineering Practices from NSTA Press my.nsta.org/resource/105619 #ngsschat
Replying to @TedWillard2061
A5: I have to think more deeply about the phenomena, driving questions, SEPs, CCCs, models, and arguments based on evidence to help me design a relevant assessment for my students. Assessments are ever-evolving but should be relevant to the standards.

I had so much fun last night! Whether it’s a Phish show or a night at the museum, when the lights go off, it’s on! Happy to be home and bolted to the ceiling again. I love you all! #phish #love #earthday #yemsg

Seeking experienced professional learning facilitators to join our facilitator team! Facilitators provide districts and teachers with the high quality professional learning they deserve. Work is flexible and can fit with a variety of schedules. #NGSSchat openscied.org/pl-team/
If you like the 5Es, you'll love BSCS's new instructional model, Anchored Inquiry Learning. If you were negative about the 5Es, you'll probably love AIL for what it does better. bscs.org/our-work/anchored-i… @BSCSorg #AILBSCS
