Students were thinking of park activities that would conflict with the life of the grasshopper sparrow.]]> 2021-04-26 21:56:51 UTC https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461796878 Takeaway elizabethgrillo910 https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461798448 One takeaway is that we were able to determine the conflict between a grasshoppers needs and a human needs, but there are ways that help solve the conflict! ]]> 2021-04-26 21:57:10 UTC https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461798448 Takeaway btads1 https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461800411 My Takeaway from this lesson is the fact that there are many ways to be able to separate these endangered areas from public parks and that the possibilities are endless.]]> 2021-04-26 21:57:49 UTC https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461800411 NGSS gabriellaalcamo19 https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461800684 Yes, this lesson aligned with NGSS. There was critical thinking as the students completed the chart, and there was art integration as the students came up with their own ideas to preserve the animals. One way the students could build on the alignment is giving a brief written response on the new idea they had. For example, if the student builds a new structure they should have a written description on how that idea would work. This would integrate some writing into the lesson. ]]> 2021-04-26 21:57:57 UTC https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461800684 NGSS jppackers13 https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461800848 Construct an argument that plants and animals have internal and external structures that function to support survival, growth, behavior, and reproduction.

Then, it allows the students to think about how their is a conflict between the two. This also gave the students the opportunity to use their imagination to design their own ways to protect the grasshopper and the humans environment. It also lets the students reflect on their designs and share them with the class so each student can express their own ideas. I like the idea at the end where their was an option to reflect on your design, so the students are able to explain it and possibly change up their design if another conflict arises. ]]> 2021-04-26 21:58:27 UTC https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461801819 NGSS btads1 https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461802989 NGSS is crucial because students need to use there critical thinking skills to figure out what could be a practical idea to help preserve these areas and prevent the conflict between them and humans. ]]> 2021-04-26 21:59:04 UTC https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461802989 jamieromano12 https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461805556 A takeaway from this lesson that students will gain is the fact that there are many solutions to be taken and students will design their own. This is very engaging and student centered. ]]> 2021-04-26 22:00:24 UTC https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461805556 NGSS rebeccamarcowitz https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461805827 This lesson was aligned with NGSS, it involved students to use different skills and analyze the different ways they can come up with their own solution to fix the conflicts in the park areas. Students were able to turn and talk to their partner and pick up on some of their ideas to help them with their solution.]]> 2021-04-26 22:00:32 UTC https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461805827 Challenges jppackers13 https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461805955 An area that I anticipate may be challenging for students is thinking about what they should draw and how this can help both the sparrows and the humans in the park. ]]> 2021-04-26 22:00:37 UTC https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461805955 Challenges gabriellaalcamo19 https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461807407 I think one challenge that could possibly take place is when creating a law or public education, how would the students draw it? Well they could create their own signs that might be posted, or they could create a detailed description of their idea. ]]> 2021-04-26 22:01:19 UTC https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461807407 Challenge btads1 https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461807767 I think one challenge the students will face is the fact that they need to be able to compare what the sparrows need in comparison to what humans need. An easy solution for this is to make a list or graph to be able to correlate everything together. ]]> 2021-04-26 22:01:30 UTC https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461807767 Takeaway danielleventicinque https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461808047 The key takeaway that students will have from this lesson is their ability to problem solve. Students will be presented with problems, as well as come up with their own through class discussion, and then be able to design their own solution. Students will use their prior knowledge and knowledge outside of the science classroom to come up with solutions and problem solve how they will fix some of the conflicts we mentioned as a class.]]> 2021-04-26 22:01:39 UTC https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461808047 Takeaway morganannmoretti https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461808919 I feel that one of the takeaways that students would take form this lesson would be that there are numerous potential ways in which we could all develop together to help protect and preserve wildlife around us. I feel that this lesson helps students to develop better understandings of the needs of animals and why it is of extreme importance for humans to become more mindful of how we can protect these animals. ]]> 2021-04-26 22:02:07 UTC https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461808919 Takeaway matthewfanizzi https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461809715 My personal takeaway was that this was definitely a very well formulated lesson that hits all of the marks necessary to make it easy and fun to learn. The addition of writing out statements and drawing and explaining their ideas is a great way to form a lesson on discovery learning.]]> 2021-04-26 22:02:28 UTC https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461809715 Engaging jppackers13 https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461810110 I might make this lesson more engaging by taking students to a park and them visually picking out parts that they think need improvement in order to protect the local wildlife. ]]> 2021-04-26 22:02:42 UTC https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461810110 Challenges elizabethgrillo910 https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461810873 I think the students need to complete the chart in a more organized way. The students should label what the grasshoppers need and what humans needs in a T-chart or in a graphic organizer. Then, there should be a second chart that allows the students to state whether there is a conflict or not. ]]> 2021-04-26 22:03:04 UTC https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461810873 Engaging btads1 https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461811219 I would make this engaging to all students by not putting restrictions on them when drawing the pictures so that they could use whatever they like and add anything they like or imagine into their park. ]]> 2021-04-26 22:03:14 UTC https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461811219 Challenge rebeccamarcowitz https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461811251 Some challenges that students could face is thinking of different solutions other than the protection of closing it off to people.

Students are invited to think-pair-share with their partners and hear other presentations in order to finalize their solution designs. Students can be assessed on how well their solution relates to the content mentioned in the lesson.]]> 2021-04-26 22:03:18 UTC https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461811325 Takeaway srehaoui https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461811683 One key takeaway that students will have from this lesson is being able to design a solution to meet the needs of both humans and animals in Freshkills Park. By comparing what Grasshopper Sparrows and humans need as well as the conflicts, students will be able create solutions to protect them. As humans, we want to enjoy the park but also think about how we can better help the beautiful wildlife.]]> 2021-04-26 22:03:28 UTC https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461811683 Alignment with NGSS morganannmoretti https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461812504 I feel that this lesson is greatly in alignment with the NGSS standards - I feel that it acts as a way of asking students to create useful models to further student understanding. It also acts as a way for students to create visualizations in their heads of potential solutions. ]]> 2021-04-26 22:03:53 UTC https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461812504 Other Comments jppackers13 https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461812578 All in all the lesson was very engaging and I can see students having a lot of fun with it, specifically the drawing part and making improvements to the places they all play in. ]]> 2021-04-26 22:03:56 UTC https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461812578 NGSS matthewfanizzi https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461813136 The alignment to NGSS can be seen in many areas within this lesson and can be drawn out into concepts such as cause and effect and factual arguments in a civil manner. Within the cause and effect concept, students are able to see the basic connections between taking cause into their own hands and effecting the sparrows in a positive way.]]> 2021-04-26 22:04:15 UTC https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461813136 Engage and Accessible gabriellaalcamo19 https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461813174 One way you could engage the students and make it accessible to students with different backgrounds is to target the structure category. Every student would be put into a group, and they would have to brain storm a structure that they could build to save the wildlife. Then the teacher could bring various types of material and supplies for the students to build it in the classroom. This will engage the students and teach them about teamwork. then the groups would present to the class which will also integrate public speaking. ]]> 2021-04-26 22:04:16 UTC https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461813174 Engaging elizabethgrillo910 https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461813493 A way to make this lesson more engaging is by watching videos, because it left like there was a more writing and drawing in this lesson then with others. A way for this lesson to be more accessible for students is to take a field trip to the park to get a more hands-on experience and exploring the areas of the park]]> 2021-04-26 22:04:27 UTC https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461813493 TAKEAWAY alyviaproscia12 https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461813604 One key takeaway for students will be that students will learn that there are multiple ways they can get involved to help protect the wildlife.

This gives them a chance to see the different populations and students will know the affect of these solutions. Allowing them to draw and include their own thoughts in a STEM related lesson is very interesting. An idea I have to build on this lesson is allow students to present, because it is engaging and shows students different opinions and ideas. ]]> 2021-04-26 22:04:58 UTC https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461814558 Challenges danielleventicinque https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461814872 An area that I would anticipate students having problems is coming up with a conflict that has to connect with something they like to do at the park and Grasshopper Sparrows. It can be difficult for some students to make the connection. In order to support students, the teacher should model an example of something he/she likes to do at the park, and how that can be a problem for the Grasshopper Sparrows. The example should be put on the board for easy visibility and so students can reference it as they come up with their own ideas.]]> 2021-04-26 22:05:07 UTC https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461814872 Engaging rebeccamarcowitz https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461815299 To make this lesson more engaging since its the final lesson, I would try and do a field trip so students can see example of what they learned that have led up to the stem challenge.

I feel that some possible resources that could be useful would be a virtual field trip, or showing students more images about how we can protect wildlife in these areas. ]]> 2021-04-26 22:10:07 UTC https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461824534 Thoughts/comments matthewfanizzi https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461824970 My overall thoughts on the material provided is that it was very engaging and helped me break down how to use art effectively in a well planned manner and hitting all of the points I as a teacher would want to hit.]]> 2021-04-26 22:10:21 UTC https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461824970 NGSS srehaoui https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461825001 This lesson aligns with the NGSS by students being able to generate and compare multiple possible solutions to a problem based on how well each is likely to
meet the criteria and constraints of the problem. Students were able to obtain information and actually be park planners to create a design on how to help the Grasshopper Sparrows in the park. One idea may be having an extension on their specific designs as they discuss other ways.

An activity in the lesson was to generate ideas and design a solution for the park with humans and birds needs and wants for it. It had a writing section to communicate the ideas individually with the paper and going into groups to talk about the ideas and explain what it is. ]]> 2021-04-26 22:11:20 UTC https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461827142 Challenges srehaoui https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461835683 Some areas in this lesson I believe may be challenging for students is being able to the draw education and passing laws categories. As seen, most students chose to close the parks off to people and drew this on their solutions. Also, some students may not like to draw and would rather explain their ideas or even express them out loud. To better support students, I could have them choose any way they feel comfortable sharing their design solutions. ]]> 2021-04-26 22:15:39 UTC https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461835683 jamieromano12 https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461838388 Something that I believe would be a challenge would be the problem statements. This would be a challenging task for some students because it may be easier to draw it then address it, working together with a partner definitely helps compare ideas. ]]> 2021-04-26 22:17:03 UTC https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461838388 Engaging srehaoui https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461847884 If we had more time presenting this lesson, I would include videos of meeting the needs of both people and Grasshopper Sparrows. Also, it would fun to go on either an in-class or virtual trip. For students with different backgrounds, we can ask them for their experiences on what activities they like to do at the park and how that will affect Grasshopper Sparrows. Again, I would like to include google translate for students who speak other languages. ]]> 2021-04-26 22:22:25 UTC https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461847884 jgenao01 https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461863602 An area I anticipate that may be challenging would be drawing some solutions. It might be harder to express what they really mean through just a picture. A solution might be to add that students can write and describe what their solution is rather than just draw if they can't express it that way. ]]> 2021-04-26 22:31:01 UTC https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461863602 Comments srehaoui https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461875900 Overall, this was a great concluding lesson. I would have liked to present a video to students, especially at the beginning of the lesson. I added the definition of the word accessible for students who may have difficulty understanding this vocabulary word. There were other words and so one suggestion would be to add a vocabulary list. ]]> 2021-04-26 22:38:06 UTC https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461875900 jgenao01 https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461884042 I would make this lesson engaging to students from different backgrounds by including videos of nature parks and play parks that humans enjoy. ]]> 2021-04-26 22:42:57 UTC https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461884042 jgenao01 https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461887503 This lesson was very engaging with the chart making, drawing and writing parts. It is also very though provoking becuase you have to think for the animal as well as the humans. ]]> 2021-04-26 22:44:54 UTC https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1461887503 jamieromano12 https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1464619356 I would make this lesson engaging and accessible to students from different backgrounds by asking them their experiences at parks and seeing if any had run into park rangers, public education about a park. Also I would show them different videos about the 4 solutions about the species and how to balance human/ animal interaction. ]]> 2021-04-27 14:39:09 UTC https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1464619356 jamieromano12 https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1464719716 Personally, I thought this lesson was very fun and engaging. Students were able to think critically and show off their artistic abilities. ]]> 2021-04-27 14:57:30 UTC https://padlet.com/rachelfkp/n29mlnhykjgb9i62/wish/1464719716
