First Graders Can Do Science
Tue, Nov 22, 2016 11:28 AM
Review
This article does an awesome job of explaining how first graders can be engaged in science class. I plan on teaching the younger grades of elementary (kindergarten and first grade) and so I found this article very beneficial. I feel more confident in my ability to create an inquiry based classroom after reading this article. I wasn’t sure how to incorporate this into a kindergarten or first grade classroom but now I have a better understanding. The author does a great job going into detail of the entire process of the steps the students take in order to complete their assignment. I really enjoyed reading all about the different steps.
Classroom Management and Safety

This chapter did an awesome job going into great detail about classroom management and safety. It explains what to do on the first day of middle school science class with your students. My favorite part of this chapter was the section that compares classroom management vs discipline. The chapter gives many examples for teaching procedures and can be beneficial to your future classroom.
Methods and Strategies: Formative Assessment Probes
Wed, Oct 26, 2016 11:20 PM
Review
I thought this article was a great way to learn about formative assessment in the science class. The article talks about formative assessment probes and how they are questions informed by standards and research on student learning that talk about students’ ideas and ways of reasoning about well known science topics. The probes can help teachers connect students’ initial ideas and scientific tools. I knew what formative assessments were, but this article helped me have a better understanding of how to incorporate formative assessment into my future science classroom
