Digging into Biology curricula and Earth and Space Sciences curricula with our middle and high school science teachers!! A special thank you to the departments of B.E.W.L., D.E.I., and I.T. for joining us! #NYSSLS 💡🏔️🧫⛈️🧬🪐 @RCSDNYS @RcsdScience @rcsdbewl

Congratulations to Rebeca Boyd, a dedicated string instruments teacher at @RCSDFP23, and Brian Gallagher, a passionate chemistry educator at @RCSDSOTA, for earning the prestigious Golden Apple Award. 🌟 Your commitment to inspiring students is truly commendable! 🍎 #ONERCSD

It was super exciting to see STEM Class at Northwest Jr. High. Students built a model with just parts and now need to inquire what’s stopping it from going the distance! @RCSDNYS Teaching and Learning #Excellence #STEM #ONERCSD

The best way to learn is to do. We're building our Instructional Coaches' skills in doing Science so they can help our teachers and students do the same. ("All Mixed Up" is referring to the lab Coaches are engaging in, not my life choices.) @RCSDNYS #ONERCSD

Annual Halloween Extravaganza with the Schools of the Arts Chemistry classes! Fire & (dry) ice! Goblins and Ghosts! 👻🔥 @RCSDSOTA @RcsdScience

Our science teachers came in early Monday morning for professional learning on Engaging in Argument from Evidence #scientificargument #scienceandengineeringpractice #SEP #NYSSLS

RCSD Science Teachers Tara Spitzer-List and Tucker Ruderman join 13 other teachers from the Great Lakes for a week of research on Lake Ontario. The knowledge they gain will be shared in our classrooms in the Fall! #shipboardscience #ONERCSD @nyseagrant @EPAGreatLakes

Our 6th grade students are thinking critically about what it means to heal! Sharing initial thoughts so far after exploring the medical reports of a broken foot. Wonder what they will come to figure out next! #studentdrivenlearning @RCSDsch45 @RCSDNYS @OpenSciEd

What happens when you give kids time and space in nature? Use the pictures to help with your answers. #NatureBasedLearning #Connectwithnature #vitaminN #outdoorsforall #@RCSDAMDA @RocEcologyP @EarthworksCFY @ChildrenNature

Please join us and/or share w/ your networks- We're excited to share tools and examples from five years of studying elementary classroom science investigations and to work with you on your investigations! forms.gle/QGn4dXGUvirAND…

We have some serious scientists in our PreK 4 investigating the life cycle of a flower! 🌷@RCSDNYS @RCSDFoundations @RcsdScience #onercsd

I can’t make this stuff up—science is everywhere & kids notice this. ❤️ 8th is figuring out why the lunar eclipse is 🔴by investigating related phenomena—🌅and 🌈. Last night’s sunset was gorgeous and a rainbow popped up today! ❓are getting answered! @OpenSciEd

"What is the impact of a drop of water?” Get ready! @RCSDNYS on May 15th to find out!!! Hints below... @13WHAM @CitizenMurphy @drpeluso @LaChicaLopez @boriordan77 @BeatrizLeBron1 @WHEC_JLewke @whec_rcaniglia @DandC @white_lajuan @kls_natureED @RocEcologyP @News_8

Aferschool enrichment! 4th graders build a robot! @RCSDMLKJr @RcsdScience

Something changes in a child when they get their hands in the dirt and learn to garden. "Ms. thank you for today, I can't explain it but I feel so much better!" Nature Base Learning is having an impact @RCSDAMDA @RocEcologyP @EarthworksCFY @RCSDNYS #gardens #outdoorsforall

AMDA🌳12 PROUD! Happy 40th anniversary of 🌳 Day! Our incredible community changing 1st Graders talking about trees & importance of them in our community w/ @CitizenMurphy & @realmalikevans! Our scholars got a glimpse of their bright ☀️futures w/ 12 alumnus Mayor Evans! @RCSDNYS

🐝Our Busy Bee Garden Club has big plans for making the school grounds bright, happy and beautiful!! Have any flowering perenials in your gardens that need to be thinned out🌿? We'll take them! #HoneycombAcademy54 @RCSDsch54 @RCSDNYS @RCSDParents @white_lajuan

Kindergarteners were able to see the chrysalis stage, live! A nice way to end their unit, before they let their butterflies go! @RCSDMLKJr @RCSDNYS @RcsdScience

Students wanted to return to Lamberton Conservatory so they could spend more time Nature Journaling. NBL Club has some talented artists. ⁦@RCSDAMDA⁩ ⁦@RCSDNYS⁩ #plants #animals #naturejournaling #goodforkids
