Science Interactive Notebook Parent Letter
I wanted to share this parent letter with you since I think it’s important that parents see what their students are doing in the science classroom. As students move on to middle and high school, parents are less involved since students are more independent, but I know many still love to see their child’s work and what a great way to give each the opportunity to have a positive conversation about school work.Parents will be AMAZED when their students share the work they've done using engaging le

Quiz and Test Parent Communication Slip
This is something that I experimented with last year in teaching. A lot of times I would send home assessments to keep the parents in the loop of how their child was doing in class and what grades to expect. Well, I was coming to the conclusion that those assessments were not getting home, particularly the ones that were not so hot on the grading scale. On each assessment day whether quiz or test I would attached this to EACH one of my students assessments no matter if they got a 100%. I did thi

Science Car Talk Conversation Starters for Parents and Kids
One of the challenges of teaching is fostering the communication between parents and kids. Teachers know that students who are exposed to more conversation learn more academic vocabulary, develop skills of persuasive argument, improve oral communication, and do better in school. But a teacher’s opportunities to engage in individual conversations with a student are limited. We hope for and try to encourage those conversations between parents and kids. But sometimes, when parents ask their chi

Importance of learning science
Learning science is particularly important for students as it equips them with the essential knowledge and skills to make sense of the world around them. Science education is not just about memorizing facts. It fosters critical thinking, inquiry, and problem-solving abilities. These skills are not only useful in school but also in everyday life beyond the classroom.
Benefits of learning science
Learning science offers many benefits to students both in school and beyond. In fact, it helps students:
- Question the world around them and seek evidence-based explanations
- Cultivate their ability to observe, experiment, and analyze data
- Nurture a sense of curiosity, awe, and wonder about the natural world
- Understand natural phenomena and the laws that govern the universe
With a solid foundation in science, teachers can help empower students to think critically, solve problems, make informed decisions, and engage with the world around them in meaningful ways.
Teaching with science resources
One of the best parts about science class is all of the possibilities for hands-on, collaborative learning! Think: labs, experiments, inquiry-based activities, and design challenges. These activities encourage students to explore scientific concepts by observing, asking questions, and conducting investigations. Additionally, with small group centers, students can engage in group experiments, discussions, and projects that require them to collaborate, share ideas, and solve problems together.
