Monica the Elf-alotl on a shelf-alotl is at it again. She's examining growing tissues to learn about how she grew from a zygote into an adult, but she can't see anything do you see her mistakes?

My Ss made us an Elf-alotl on the shelf----alotl. Monica is making phenomon themed mischief during our Axolotl (making cells) unit. The Ss spotted the mistake in the DNA can U? #Punnybiojokes #Creativekids #phenomeonmakesitstick

Tracking sense-making of the phenomenon. Ss generate ❓ which drive our investigations. As we answer our ❓we generate new ones. Anchor charts allow us to see where we have been and where we are going so that we remember our purpose and see the big picture. #NGSS #studentcentered

Assessing prior knowledge can & should inform instruction. Ss were not at consensus on what plants need, so we are conducting experiments to gather the evidence we need to answer our own questions. #NGSS #studentscientists #motivationmonday

Ok....one more for the road. See you next year!

Enjoy a slice of summer 🍉 congratulations to the class of 2022!

Already thinking about next September ☺️

It makes my heart so full every time a class spontaneously starts singing while they work. That happened a lot this year. I'll miss them as they move to the HS. 🎤 #biokaraoke
