As is true for a lot of progressive educators, I have a belief in and attempt to practice the implementation of student voice and choice: Sometimes this means fully letting go of the reins so learners become fully self-directed. I had the privilege of witnessing this in action one afternoon last week. I use the word, “witness,” as it was fully and totally due to the actions of one student.

The instructor’s PPT slides are brilliant. You’ve splurged on the expensive interactive courseware. Student engagement is stellar. So… why are half of your students still forgetting everything they learned in just a matter of weeks? It's likely a matter of cognitive science! With so much material to "teach" these days, we often forget to incorporate key proven principles into our curricula — namely active recall, metacognition, spaced repetition, and interleaving practice.

Surprisingly, 15-20% of the population has a language-based learning disability and over 65% of those are deficits in reading. Often, these go undiagnosed as students, parents, and teachers simply think the child is not a good reader, is lazy, or is disinterested. Thankfully, the International Dyslexia Association sponsors an annual Dyslexia Awareness Month in October aimed to expand comprehension of this little-understood language-based learning condition.

Classroom management is a challenge for many teachers, but it can be especially triggering for STEM teachers. This is where procedures for the STEM classroom come in handy! Most Stem teachers see multiple groups of students a day or every week. They can sometimes even see every class at their school site for a total of 30 minutes a week. It’s often difficult to create, implement, and hold to a classroom management system in that short amount of time.

October is National Bullying Prevention Month. Bullying is no longer relegated to the playground or the neighborhood. It now regularly happens in the cyberworld. Kids don’t expect that and often don’t know how to handle it. In October 2006, thirteen-year-old Megan Meier hung herself in her bedroom closet after suffering months of cyberbullying.

The curriculum translates the Next Generation Science Standards into a classroom experience where students can be scientists and engineers. It’s what helps students gain experience performing science investigations and making connections on an everyday basis in order to reach mastery. Over time, they can generalize those skills in a variety of situations.

An alumna of my Conceptual Physics Summer Institute was having some trouble with picturing the answer to this question from waves problem set 9. She asked if I could help. Of course! This is an important but very difficult question which helps students understand how a wave moves along a string. The question, which I've adapted from an old New York Regents physics exam: If you assign this, do NOT let students ask you questions!

This autumn-themed counting center does just that as kids practice number recognition and ten frames with playful crows! Getting Ready. Prepping this game was fairly quick and simple, which is helpful when I’m getting math centers or small groups ready for the week.
