Intro
to PD topics for the year: Science Conversations and Science Learning: what
research shows.
Intro
Video:
8th
Grade class, given instruction on ingneous, metamorphic, sedimentary rocks.
Some practice with “science talks” (how rocks are formed). Rules for science
talks include to be a good listener, but teacher admits that often just meant
be silent till you can talk/question.
Task: Day one, discuss with groups, Day
two: build model of rock cycle
Teacher
is helping a more organized group in classroom, this group is in the hallway.
2 min in: What suggestions should she
give the group?
What
do you think about how she intervened?
7
minutes in: What do you think of the students’ summary/progress?
11
min in: What about her explanation with shoe?
After
this video:
Do
you think that science talks could help you as a teacher figure out students’
learning?
How
can you structure science talks?
Also:
Examine
the pacing guide for the year to see if there are any issues/changes.
(Chem
decided: quarter one: physical/chemical changes, matter, basic atomic structure
quarter
two: periodic table, nuclear, compounds/bonding)
(Physics
decided: quarter one: motion (up to 2D), quarter two: forces circular motion moved to spring.)
See
what other data you need from CMT/CAPT.
