Here is an image that I wanted to share with all of you. With our interdisciplinary units of study pretty much complete, our papers basically writing themselves (*grin*), and all of us busy completing the rest of the requirements for this class, we have done our share of thinking. And we started with one book: Under the Blood Red Sun. I find it interesting how so many ideas can be introduced by and sprout from one source. As we bring our own thoughts and perspectives into the mix, we get multiple versions of the story.
This August, I will attempt to teach Science with a few different strategies that I had not planned on. My hope is that reading and writing about science will allow my students the freedom to think for themselves, to unleash viewpoints--mine or not, to express themselves as active learners, and to have fun while doing so.
Love it, the poster and the sentiment! I am assigning you as my science mentor. Oh no, I still have to talk to Taryn! Yikes...thanks for the indirect reminder.
ReplyDeleteI really like the poster! Such deep meaning conveyed in fifteen words. I think that incorporating reading and writing in to Science is going to be really interesting for the students and teacher(s).
