5th graders in @RHES_STEM’s class at @RockyHillRams finalized their mobile launchers and gave each other feedback today. They are counting down the days until the @NASAArtemis megarocket launch!

Let’s talk about M’Kenna! In day 1 of training on this 7th grade storyline we’ve learned:
❗️M’Kenna has alarming medical issues
🫀How healthy digestive system works
🤢How M’Kenna’s unhealthy digestive system works
🧫The in & out of cells

I got sent this message from a WA state science teacher today:
"Working in a small district and having been transferred from middle school to high school in 2020, I'm in the unique position of having taught the same students @OpenSciEd since they were in 7th grade. 1/4

Can’t wait to find out the relationship between candy & orangutans today during KCS Pd! @KCSScience @ScienceIsFUN4us @Excited4Science #storylines

Kicking of another great day of #kcssummerscience! We have adopted our orangutans and will use @OpenSciEd lessons adapted by @ScienceIsFUN4us and Andrea Souza to determine how palm oil production affects this endangered animal. @KCSScience

Great work! DYK, @chesterzoo has some excellent teaching resources for all ages on the issue of sustainable palm oil: bit.ly/2wYMtD9

Hey @SwainEvent I heard you are the MAN and love helping local schools. Can you please help retweet so VolNation will vote for Central High School in the Vans Shoe contest. CHS is the only school in TN that made it this far. We could win $50,000 customculture.vans.com/?fbcl…

The future is looking bright for @KnoxSchools Science Leadership! Save the date for summer retreat! @ScienceIsFUN4us @Excited4Science @kbian4

We saw that particle collisions cause a transfer of energy and we called that conduction...but we are wondering if all materials conduct heat the same? @KCSScience Ss in Mrs. Haley's class will find out! What do you think will happen?

@KCSScience Chem teachers… A great way to make thinking (especially about “invisible” materials) visible for Ss and Ts.
"Visual BCA Tables" (Before, Change, After) from @chemhemling at @ChemEdX - - an experience with stoichiometry, limiting/excess reactants, *and* acids and bases?! A winner. Totally trying this year.
Thanks Melissa!

How does heat move? Will the cold move from the ice to the butter or will heat from the candle move to the butter? Ss monitor & record data to find out @Excited4Science @gmprincipal @OpenSciEd @KCSScience

@KCSScience 6th Grade Thermal Energy Cohort Teachers kicked off the unit this week and I am loving hearing the student thinking and questioning surrounding our @OpenSciEd phenomenon. Great work! #KCSSciencedoesstorylines
