Dear #EduSky I need your help for my dissertation research

Are You a Current School-Based Teacher Who Teaches Outdoors?
 
Are you willing to participate in an interview about your experiences teaching outdoors?

Hey #EduSky I have FREE learning activities for you based on my expediiton to Antarctica—check them out and share away! drive.google.com/file/d/1t-BD...

Still inspired by my expedition to #Antarctica I’ve created another FREE classroom resource based on my experience

This connects to Sustainable Development Goal 14 ( #sdg14 )- Life Below Water.

Message me or comment SDG to get the link :)

Geology is fascinating but believe it or not, not all learners agree…so what better way to kick off the unit then to be a rock….star….and make initial observations of rocks…epic playlist is mandatory.

Providing equitable access to science content is an important issue. All communities deserve access to high quality science content—so how do we do it?

Learned about a new company and their amazing #stem kit to build a skateboard—so excited to build it with learners! #EduSky

If you had to guess what I do for a living…would it really be a surprise I’m a teacher? I love being a part of Lee Ind journeys no matter the age of learner. It’s about the experience, the journey. And yes—a lot of costume changes 😆 #expeditionschnekser #expeditionscience #iteachtoo #EduSky

Hello #EduSky I’m Becky from Virginia (USA) and I am an advocate for experiential and outdoor leaning :) I’d love to connect to anyone in education ready to empower learners! I wrote a book and am a PhD student heading into dissertation soon 👀 #expeditionscience

Looking for a simple way to spice up an activity in your classroom? Black lights and highlighters are an easy way to get your students RAVE-ing about your activity!

This can be used with any subject or grade level!

Penguins can be quite aggressive, especially during mating season! Until this moment, I did not realize that the iconic behavior of the penguins in the Madagascar films was actually scientifically accurate.

Meet Minuca minax, commonly known as the red‐jointed fiddler crab. They prefer lower salinity water sources and are common in area of brackish water.

Ever wonder what it’s like to be in a #penguin colony during mating season?

So what is an educator explorer to do? You get as close as you can, and you use a sharpie!

When you are a teacher and field scientist, details matter. I’ll soon be teaching about all things Antarctica and of course— PENGUINS! I have found stuffies that will work for most species but chinstrap penguins…I have yet to find an accurate match in a stuffed animal.

Back from Antarctica, it was incredible. What questions do you have?

Can you find the Paralichthys dentatus? #MarineLife 🦑

Heading to Antarctica on expedition in 2 weeks…what do you want to know? What observations would you like me to bring back? #scicomm #antarctica #ExpeditionSchnekser #ExpeditionScience #womaninstem

My book is a work of heart, with many talented friends included in the anecdotes—take a look!
