I LOVED using CODAP to explore/analyze data. I spent last night playing around with the site and am excited about working with our math/science teachers on ways this can be used in their classrooms. We have a garden arts program and the plants data sets would be helpful to her in the current units of study!

We are planning on providing a PD session to our science and math teams. We would like to share with them how phenomena can be used to introduce and provide an anchor throughout the lesson. We think it is important to build exploration and provide relevancy to students. Eventually, we would like this to expand to other content areas as well.

I appreciated the opportunity to dig into the use of CODAP alongside others curious about more in-depth use. There is a lot of opportunity to upload curated data for teacher use to ease their workload and to provide common content.

Implement a team/department meeting for all middle grades (we are at two different physical locations, so planning together is more difficult) for vertical alignment.

Would love to have a PD for all teachers K-12 (upper and lower school) on tools and using technology across the board.

I plan to incorporate more everyday phenomena with my lessons. In the past of I have placed a lot of pressure on finding big/grandiose events, but now I realize they can be simple daily observations to help guide learning.

# data[].attributes.body
I plan on sharing CODAP during PLC time and implementing more phenomena based teaching.

# data[].attributes.body
As soon as scheduling allows.

# data[].attributes.body
Our next steps are to gather all the information we have learned and find time to share with our teams. We also need to obtain the books about the probes so that we have resources available when planning. Another step is to explore a PD using CODAP and how it can be incorporated in to the phenomena. Lastly, we would like to introduce the AI options into lesson planning.

# data[].attributes.body
Talk to directors and IC reps to see how we can plan for future PD.

Develop a plan for 6-8 science teachers to communicate more effectively.

Determine a time to share the information, lessons learned, skills, and websites with staff through PD.

Then, training attendees work together to develop and present the material to the staff.

How are we going to bring what we've learned back to our school?

We will share information regarding tools that we've learned about with our colleagues and implement new ideas into our Science classrooms!

In the 6-8 Vertical PLC meeting 3/26 we will review Ai tools and discuss phenomena-based learning. High School will do the same in the next department meeting. We would also like to discuss vertical coordination between grade levels to identify the common topics in each grade level's standards and discuss how to build on previous knowledge.

# data[].attributes.body
I have already sent an email to my school/colleagues highlighting some of the tools we have used and general information surrounding them. I am excited to delve deeper into them myself.

How will you bring back what you've learned to your school?

We will share information that we have learned at this training with our admin in PLC. We will also use resoureces/ideas we have taken away in our science planning as a team.

What are your next steps?

Finding ways to implement strategies we have learned in our current content. This will also be beneficial as we continue to build our resources and lessons planning in the next school year.

When will it happen?

Conversations to share what we have taken away will be shared in an upcoming PLC with admin/our team. New strategies will be implemented in our planning meeting this year for our upcoming lessons, and will be used when we are working on content next school year as well.

# data[].attributes.body
To bring back what I learned at this session I'd like to make a mini-lesson that incorporates many of the strategies and resources we learned about these past two days for the other 5th grade teachers to engage with. I think many of the strategies we learned for student engagement are relevant to other subject levels. I think our 5th grade math teacher, and possibly social studies, would love a resource like CODAP. My next steps would be to meet up with the 5-8 science team at our school and go over the notes and highlights from this PD session. We meet as a science team once a month, so I would like for this to happen at our next meeting.

# data[].attributes.body
We will implement these new ideas into our weekly lesson planning sessions, share information with our lead at weekly PLC sessions, and present what we've learned to students in class.

During our 5-8 vertical science meeting, Jenn and I will share our notes with the other 2 science teachers.

First we can discuss phenomena and how to utilize the anchor phenomena throughout the unit of study.

We would also share CODAP as a way tool to help with mathematical and computational modeling.

AI tools would be the next level that we share out with our teammates.

Our next vertical science team meeting will be in the next 3 weeks.
