The best distance traveled over the past 5 semesters in #BlockBscience with the @ksenergyprog Sail Cars challenge…64’ !!!! Way to go Jordyn, Justina, and Danielle! 💜 @KSUCollegeofEd

@DrPangansclass A possible addition to the Kitchen Science book? I may have to try this for myself soon! #BlockBScience

It’s been a fun week of exploring sound in #blockBscience @KSUCollegeofEd

Did you know that the “M” on M&M’s is made of oil? @DrPangansclass led us through this simple science demonstration to explore both density and hydrophobic/hydrophilic materials! #BlockBScience

Always love to see the creativity expressed in their One-Pagers about our science learning!! #blockbscience @KSUCollegeofEd

How do you introduce the architecture of the standards? 🤷🏼‍♀️ With a Notice and Wonder structure!! 💡Great sense making and motivation to understand how to read and interpret the NGSS standards! #blockbscience #ngsschat @KSUCollegeofEd

Collaboration at work! 🚧👷‍♀️👷👷‍♀️ Using strategies like “Give One, Get One” to learn from others and then open sorting to make sense of ideas! It’s Intro to NGSS week!!! #blockbscience @KSUCollegeofEd

We 💜 this lesson! Exploring Earth’s 💧. Today we explored the distribution of water and created models to help construct our understanding. #blockBscience @KSUCollegeofEd

Part 2 of Exploring Our Water lesson: elaborating on the ideas of accessibility. Jigsaw learning, poster projects, and revising our thinking 🤔. Great work from these groups today! #blockBscience @KSUCollegeofEd

I absolutely love watching my preservice teachers find awe and wonder in science! Even at 20-22yo they are fascinated by their discoveries. Today we explored sounds and how we hear them. Here’s a fun look at their experiences. #BlockBscience #staycurious @KSUCollegeofEd

Exploring how we can use children’s literature in science instruction. Some books 🤫 whisper an invitation to explore concepts while others 📣 SHOUT the concept of focus. #blockBscience @KSUCollegeofEd

When it’s beautiful outside and your students beg to enjoy it…you pivot and have class outside of course! ☀️ Probably the most engaged they’ve been in weeks 🤣. #almostbreak #blockBscience @KSUCollegeofEd

Another beautiful day at the zoo with Section C of #blockbscience to wrap up our informal learning experiences exploration. @KSUCollegeofEd

Today #blockBscience used Chat Stations to synthesize our learning of IBL, 5E, and Sensemaking! Such a fun and interactive way to discuss and deepen our thinking! 💡Thanks @cultofpedagogy for the idea! @KSUCollegeofEd

Enjoyed a great 🌎 day at the @sunsetzoo with Section A #blockbscience This was part of our informal learning experiences day! @KSUCollegeofEd

Thank you @ksenergyprog for sharing with our Preservice elementary teachers this week! 💜 You’re a fantastic resource for Kansas educators! #KSSci #BlockBscience @KSUCollegeofEd

Always a great class when the @ksenergyprog is here! Thanks for sharing about your resources and how you serve Kansas STEM education! It was perfect for #NationalSTEMDay 💜 @KSUCollegeofEd #kssci #BlockBscience
