Today we started exploring gravitational potential energy by building marble coasters during class. There were so many great ideas and creative designs, great job students!!!

BBHMS 7th graders learned first hand this week what it's like to track, study, and protect the endangered Mountain Yellow-Legged Frog with radio telemetry equipment. Thank you @sandiegozoo & @SDZSafariPark for giving our students such an amazing and memorable learning experience!

Equity and Inclusion workshop THIS SATURDAY from 10-11:30. Take a deeper look into your own identity in order to have better discussions around race and equity issues with your students. See our website for details. STEMteachersCLE.org

Join us for our first ever VIRTUAL workshop focused on Equity and Inclusion in the STEM classroom. Titled "Who are We as Science Educators? Part I" Saturday 9/26/20 10:00 - 11:30. Register here: zoom.us/meeting/regist…

@SecaurPhysics So well deserved, congratulations!!! Your dedication and talent inspires us all ❤️

@sciencewoo Hello little friends, from your other little friends!!! 🥰🦆

These ducklings are SOOO CUTE!!!! We got up early so they could have some pool time.

Filmed a lab🧪 in my classroom today and got a wonderful reminder from Dr. Bunsen Honeydew and his assistant Beaker... ❤️

@stephaniemherb @STEMteachersCLE Also, IRIS will mail you this great free poster of seismic waves through Earth's interior if you email them ;) iris.edu/hq/inclass/pos…

@stephaniemherb @STEMteachersCLE These look great! I'm so glad your students enjoyed this lab!!! I added in a really neat virtual seismic wave simulator this year to help students visualize the earthquake data using iris.edu/hq/inclass/sof… . Hope to run into you at STEMteachersCLE again soon!!!

Thank you @MsKroesen for sharing this lab at @STEMteachersCLE. The students argued their claims about Earth’s interior with seismic wave data. #modelinginstruction #modms

@classenj The kids loved this activity and it was all they needed to understand planetary differentiation and draw connections to density. I really enjoyed getting to know you through the online MS Advanced Modeling workshop the past 5 weeks, let's keep in touch!!!

Mystery bead bottle phenomenon that 7th graders investigated today as we explore the planetary differentiation of Earth.

Don't forget to register for the Socratic Questioning workshop happening this Saturday in Elyria. Increase your productive class discussions! eventbrite.com/e/socratic-que… @Eventbrite

#2019uscgc crystal judging, so many cool crystals! @USCrystalComp @BenedictLabs

BBHMS students worked with park rangers in Alaska @GlacierBayNPS to learn more about glaciers and the ecosystems they interact with during science class today 🧪. Thank you Glacier Bay National Park for giving our students such an amazing distance learning experience!!!

Congrats to these three crystal growers from left to right... Maansi, Eric B., and Eric P. for growing crystals representing BBHMS in the @USCrystalComp! Great job bees!!!

BBHMS 8th graders created particle models to explain and discuss how they grew their own alum crystal for the @USCrystalComp. Great job bees!

Sending in our crystals today for the @USCrystalComp. It was so awesome to watch our 8th graders enthusiasticly check their crystals each day as soon as they walked into the room. They truly enjoyed expermenting with their crystal growing conditions the last few weeks! Go bees!!
