We went bird watching. We LOVE bird watching.

After we went bird watching we made a special project and wrote about our experiences. I bet you are impressed. I know I was.

Look what just arrived! Cannot wait to start my new book, begin to learn more, and reach out to our local indigenous communities to be sure indigenous ecological knowledge is included in our science programming PreK-8! @gemsnet10 @TomaquagMuseum @RIEEAConnects @HaffenrefferMus

This is why I teach! It's about the kids! Thank you to Mrs. Auclair and her grade 3 students both in school and virtual. We too a trip around the world to look at plant and animal adaptations through Google Expedition. #gemsneturi @gemsnet10 @Brissetted

So much fun to investigate our science questions outdoors! Thank you Mrs. Dyer and your grade 4 students for inviting me along. I wonder if saturation of soil or salinity of soil will effect the germination and plant growth of your seeds? @Brissetted @KaylaGroccia @gemsnet10

The painted lady larva are in chrysalis and we are anxiously waiting for the final stage! @jenpooreri @CharihoRegional @gemsnet10

We enjoyed a nice walk on the nature trail looking for and listening to birds. Then we drew and wrote about our observations.

Congrats to some amazing educators, all have taught me a few things about science! URI professor plays prominent role in development of PBS Kids’ show Elinor Wonders Why™ today.uri.edu/news/uri-profe… @gemsnet10 @jenpooreri

When the 🐛🦋 hatches when Ss are at lunch- take a video to show them. 😂#teacherlife @BRMSrocks @gemsnet10

Huge thank you to @PatriciaLapier8 who helped us make our water and salt tolerance investigation a success. We will be making observations to see how different plants grow under various water conditions. 🪴❤️🪴❤️@gemsnet10 @WLCColts @BSDBroncos #sciencerocks

While I missed having students in the lab looking through microscopes, using this online microscope was pretty darn cool in class today. And when it comes to pandemic learning, it's all about the small victories. (Get it? SMALL victories?!?) #NGSSchat ncbionetwork.org/educational-re…
