The sky agreed to allow for a beautiful display of a partial lunar eclipse. You can see the Earth's umbra at the top and the slightly darker penumbra below. #space #SciEd

My post for today: Destreamed Science #snc1w does not mean dumbing down curriculum. This is not the point of destreaming. In fact, we need to set the bar higher and focus on skills instead of memorizing. Let's engage more students and improve science literacy. #onted #equity

Had an inspiring, energetic conversation with an experienced awesome teacher in my department. We both concluded the following in response to misunderstandings of destreaming: "Destreaming does not mean easier, does not mean lowered expectations, does not mean fluff. " #onted

Great work Gr9’s & @cepedachem ! Ss measure trees & abiotic factors to connect the role of forests in climate change. Always meaningful to experience learning in beautiful nature. #snc1w
Replying to @StMarcellinusSS
@StMarcellinusSS grade 9 Science students spent the day immersed in our forest ecosystem measuring its impact and value it has to combat climate change.
