I’m case a visual helps….
Want to teach HS chemistry at one of the most awesome high schools in Denver?!?!? DM me or apply for job number 55877!

What is the common ancestry of any good storylined unit? Co-design, Research, Modeling, and Standards-mapping are on the list!

Anyone out there have a student tracker that supports them with keeping track of how they've made progress on all the Performance Expectations over their HS career? I'd love to 'borrow' it for a minute :)

So many great questions about rodents, clover, and pigeons! I bet if we answer them all, we'll be able to explain how urbanization is driving evolutionary changes...and maybe even come up with some ideas for adjusting how we urbanize in the future! @OpenSciEd

Your window of opportunity is closing in front of you! Now is the time to share this survey with all of your amazing students - doesn't matter what grade they are in or what they are currently studying :) Share widely and generously! docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F…

Who else is finding evidence of student sense making and reversible-reaction explanations (in context) in school hallways today????

It is always fun to learn that what the @OpenSciEd curriculum writers anticipated students would think, question, and share actually plays out in situ. Check out the blue list the benefits and costs of each that this class came up with to start L1: (1/3)

L1 Teacher Guide: 'Look for students to mention that they used a microwave, toaster, stovetop, or air fryer to cook their food. Students should also mention the dangers of using some appliances, or the limitations of some appliances to cook different types of food.' (2/3)

Love seeing these hand-on artifacts and evidence of students using their own questions to drive instruction in @DPSNewsNow @iHub Biology classrooms supporting students making sense of a phenomenon!

How exciting for your students to have a voice in curricular design! The more students you get to complete this survey, the more likely it'll be for your students to be motivated by the next OpenSciEd Evolution/Common Ancestry Unit for HS Biology! docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F…

We'd LOVE your students' input on how interesting some different phenomena are, all related to common ancestry & speciation....5 points of extra credit to everyone who gets their kiddos to complete this survey! docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F…

How does my watch know this??? Should be part of a computer science class in high school!
