SO proud of our work @ @UCitySchools’ BWMS. 4 years in the making! Incredibly grateful to leadership for time and space to innovate, & for using student “data” beyond test scores to justify this improvement journey w/the hard-working, dedicated teachers of our brilliant children!
SDUC Science Coordinator Elizabeth Gardner joined local educators for the Practical Research in Education Showcase at @wustlisp Danforth Campus in celebration of research and innovations that educators explored. #InSTLforSTL @UCSharonica @UCLearns

It takes a monster to kill children. But to watch monsters kill children again and again and do nothing isn’t just insanity—it’s inhumanity.

Driving Question Boards (or Wonder Walls as we call them K-2) can be powerful student-driven tools or just a bulletin board in the room. How do you keep them alive and a driving force in your S-centered classrooms?

Engage, MODEL, explore, revisit MODEL, explain, revise MODEL. I love that you can see progress of student learning through visual models or written stories. Are your students drawing about science? #HandsOnScience #MySci

Imagine classrooms that value student belonging and efficacy as much as they value performance. What norms should be constructed and enforced to live into these values? @STEMpactSTL #STEMTQ21 #STEMcapable #improver
