A new year looms ahead...an exciting year for sure! Last year was just a taste of looking at new science standards and approaches to science teaching. Now it is time to really work at it.
What does this mean? New methods of instruction. New methods of engaging students. New methods of assessment. In fact, a new look to my classroom. After years and years of rows, I will try small groups.
So much depends on interaction and group learning. Fewer worksheets. More discussion. Fewer quizzes. More thinking. Each class is a team of learners and I am the coach. If 10,000 hours are needed to become proficient at a new skill, then let's begin!
Here we go...
A science teacher for (ahem) years, I will share some of the better and best moments of life as a science nerd.
