Hi, my name is Tara Kimmey and I am a Middle School ScienceTeacher at Colorado STEM Academy. My focal students are level6s and 7s. They enjoy science, but it’s hard to �nd resources and

labs on their reading levels. ― TARA KIMMEY

Please introduce yourself hereAnd describe your focal students please!

Hello, My name is Mariska Hamstra. I will be student teachingat Lakewood High next semester. ― MARISKAHAMSTRA

I'm Tony Bullock, I teach Chemistry and Physical science atGateway High School in Aurora. I love working with studentswho are considered "high risk", and have done so for 23 years.

― TONY BULLOCK

Good Morning! I am Emily Heinrich and I teach 6th gradescience at Discovery Canyon Middle School in Colorado Springs,

My focal students are both boys and girls who struggle in thearea of literacy. My goal is to use science to engage them in textand materials that extend their current literacy level by raising

their interest level. ― EMILY HEINRICH

Hello, I am Lisa Busch. I teach 5th grade at Pikes Peak School ofExpeditionary Learning. We are an EL school and our current

expedition is about Earth systems. We are currently creatingenvironmental action plans to recommend ways to reduce our

school's carbon footprint. ― EMILY HEINRICH

Our de�nition of STEMFrom Outlier Research: "In all cases, it is clear that some of themost valued components of STEM schools are not STEM-discipline speci�c, but relate to broader, transferrable, lifelongskills…Educational philosophers such as Dewey, Piaget,Vygotsky, and Bruner have advocated for inquiry andconstructivist approaches for over a century. They arguedfor student autonomy, relevance, collaboration with peers, andlearning-by-doing."

2018 International Virtual ScienceSymposium - GLOBE.govGLOBE is excited to host the 2018GLOBE International Virtual ScienceSymposium (IVSS). The IVSS is a wayfor students from all GLOBE countriesto showcase their hard work. With GLOBE, students learn thepractices of science through hands-on investigations in their owncommunities, sparking their curiosity and interest in science.

GLOBE: Earth as a SystemPerceiving Earth as a system begins when we �rst feel warmthfrom sunshine or get wet standing in the rain. UnderstandingEarth as a system – Earth System Science – requires aquantitative exploration of the connections among all parts(atmosphere, hydrosphere, lithosphere, and biosphere) of thesystem. The measurements of The GLOBE Program providestudents with the means to begin this exploration forthemselves.The processes comprising the global environment areinterconnected. Many of the major environmental issues of

our time have driven scientists to study how theseconnections operate on a global basis – to understand Earthas a system.

CAS 2020Develop a model to describe the cycling of Earth’s materialsand the �ow of energy that drives this process. (MS-ESS2-1)(Clari�cation Statement: Emphasis is on the processes ofmelting, crystallization, weathering, deformation, andsedimentation, which act together to form minerals and rocksthrough the cycling of Earth’s materials.)   Colorado Essential Skills and Science and EngineeringPractices:

1. Construct a scienti�c explanation based on valid andreliable evidence obtained from sources (including thestudents’ own experiments) and the assumption thattheories and laws that describe the natural worldoperate today as they did in the past and will continueto do so in the future.

What happened to the scienti�c method?"This approach often obscures or distorts the processes ofinquiry as they are practiced by scientists. Practices, such asreasoning carefully about the implications of models andtheories; framing questions and hypothesesso that they can be productively investigated; systematicallyanalyzing and integrating data to serve as evidence to evaluateclaims; and communicating and critiquing ideas in a scienti�ccommunity are vital parts of inquiry. However, they tend to bemissed when students are taught a scripted proceduredesigned toobtain a particular result in a decontextualized investigation.Furthermore, these higher-level reasoning and problem-solving practices require a reasonable depth of familiarity withthe content of a given scienti�c topic if students are to engagein them in a meaningful way. Debates over content versusprocess are not in step with the current views of the nature ofscience…. Science is seen as a fundamentally social enterprisethat is aimed at advancing knowledge through thedevelopment of theories and models that have explanatoryandpredictive power and that are grounded in evidence. Inpractice this means that content and process are deeplyintertwined."(NRC, 2012b, p. 127)

Re�ection: Application withFocal Students

JANELLE JOHNSON DEC 01, 2018 10:24AM

How can you apply today's content orapproaches?What would you need to modify for this to work with yourfocal students? How do you think they would respond?

6th grade is Earth and Space Science. I taught continental driftand Pangea last week, and my plan was rock cycle this up

coming week. This session was very meaningful for myplanning. I loved the idea of the rock testing and giving them

hands on experience. As I’ve stated before, a lot of my kids havedif�culty reading. Therefore, this hands on experience would be

great for them to identify and highly engage them! ― TARA KIMMEY

JANELLE JOHNSON NOV 29, 2018 08:11AM

What useful connections did you makeduring the workshop?

I loved the idea of the rock testing, while engaging them withhands on! I will use almost this entire session into my planning.

I think it is imperative to not only give them backgroundinformation with notes, but letting them discover proper names

of rocks through testing. This will give them ownership ofunderstanding and success when correctly identifying!
