Leveraging Models to Cultivate Science and Engineering Practices (SEPs): Middle School
Developing and Using Models is a key SEP that can be a powerful sensemaking tool in the science classroom. Modeling offers students a tangible way to explore, understand, and make predictions about the world around them. When used effectively, modeling can be an anchor practice that motivates, guides, and informs the other SEPs. In this interactive session, we will explore ways MS students can develop, revise, and use models to make sense of real-world phenomenon.

Designing Phenomenal Lessons for the New TEKS
There is one new science TEKS that is simply stated as ensuring students develop and use models to represent phenomenon. However, that one TEKS could fundamentally alter how you plan and design your classroom instruction. In this session, you’ll explore what a phenomenon is, what is meant by using models, and how you can develop an effective phenomenon and models-based unit for your classroom.

Calling All Planeteers!
Students will create a science exhibit booth to teach the “public” about the hazards or benefits of the topic they have chosen to represent. They will create a visually pleasing booth to attract attention to their cause andevelop a digital or physical takeaway that shows evidence of the argument for their cause. Students will then present their argument and evidence to other students and teachers that are visiting their booth.

How to Teach Science Through Investigations
This session will show pedagogy to teach science content and skills efficiently, producing science-literate students by having students learn science by doing science. We need to find more ways to move away from rote memorization and spend more time doing investigations which accelerates learning. We will explore the results of research that shows why this strategy is so important. Educators will see how this is time-saving, powerful, and useful for all learners.

Three-Dimensional Instruction and the New TEKS
The biggest change in the revised science TEKS is a shift from a two-dimensional (2-D) perspective on teaching and learning to a three-dimensional (3-D) perspective. The revised TEKS also call for students to be able to use SCIs, RTCs, and SEPs to figure out phenomena rather than simply being able to remember concepts and skills. The session will give participants an opportunity to see what 3D instruction looks like first hand.

Supercharging the Teaching of Science With the Use of Games, Computers, and AI
Games create synthetic worlds that demonstrate the principles of the subjects being taught. AI tutoring can augment teaching in a very powerful way. Additionally, the Socratic method of asking questions makes learning much more efficient and sticky. When students are required to answer a series of questions, learning is active and therefore much more effective than passive learning, like reading or listening to a lecture.

Awesome Hands-on Activities for the Revised TEKS
In his hands-on session, attendees participate in a variety of physical science activities that engage, motivate, and address the revised TEKS. You’ll explore SEPs and CER engagements using inexpensive materials as you explore collisions, engineer/launch flying things, create slime without using borax, and construct an understanding of sound through phenomena-based learning that profiles the construction of classroom noisemakers. Come join in on the fun and excitement of hands-on experiences that celebrate the changes to TEKS!

Utilizing Recurring Themes and Concepts to Foster Meaningful Thinking
Recurring themes and concepts (RTCs) are a key part of the new science TEKS that can be used as powerful thinking tools for all students. In this session, we will model practical strategies utilizing RTCs that will equip students to better understand science content and make meaningful connections between different science concepts and disciplines. Participants will leave with ready-to-use strategies that can be used in any science context.

Nature Play and Inquiry-Based Learning: An Interdisciplinary Biliteracy Sequence for Young Learners!
Concrete experiences in nature provide the perfect context for exploration, language development, and academic mastery in early childhood. Developmentally appropriate practices indicate that young children are more likely to succeed academically and become proficient speakers of two languages when learning proceeds from concrete to abstract and familiar to unfamiliar through inquiry learning and teaching.

Welcome: Kinder Coders 101
Coding is one phase of computer science children can learn at an early age using a brightly-colored yellow robot called Bee-Bot. Children learn to use basic commands: forward, back, left, and right then press "GO" to start the Bee-Bot on its way. At the end of each command, Bee-Bot blinks and beeps. These sounds allow children to track Bee-Bot movement and confirm its completion. What a fun way to learn coding with your students!

The Great Explainer and How You Can Use His Method to Help Your Students Be More Effective Learners and Studiers
The Feynman Method is a learning technique developed by Nobel Prize-winning physicist Richard Feynman. It is especially well-suited for science. It can help students to deepen their understanding of concepts, identify areas where they need more work, and develop their own way of explaining complex ideas. Some additional benefits are helping students to develop critical thinking skills, helping students to become more engaged in their learning, and helping students to develop a passion for science.

Unlocking the Secrets of Microplastics in Our Gulf Coast
Microplastics are very small pieces of plastic (less than 5mm) classified as one of the most common contaminants of our environment. From the food we eat, air we breathe, to the sand we enjoy during summer days, microplastics can be found all around us. This session will focus on how microplastics travel through the environment, how we can identify them, and ways to remediate their effects.

Exploring Opportunities to Learn Science Through Cognitively Demanding Tasks
Students spend over 80% of their classroom time working on tasks. And so, tasks signal what is important to learn, how one should learn, and what counts as important intellectual activity. Our goal is to explore how tasks provide opportunities for students to learn science. Teachers will engage in a hands-on science task, debrief how that task supported opportunities for sensemaking, and analyze an assortment of tasks for features that support varied learning opportunities.

Engaging In-Class Student Projects for Cells to Body Systems
Projects created with readily available materials students love AND won’t trash after completion. Projects include newspaper bones, two-dimensional body systems, cell/organ aprons, pasta skeletons, and hand models demonstrating tendon-joint-muscle interaction. You’ll also sing the songs "Single Cells" and Mitosis Division," and receive event descriptions for the Human Body Olympics. Learn ideas for publicly sharing your student’s models to increase motivation and spread science literacy in your community. Projects created during this session will be given away.

What Are Phenomena, and How Do They Work With the New TEKS in Science?
At the end of the session, participants will better understand what phenomena are and why they are a key to science education. You will do phenomenon-based, 3-D activities explicitly linked to the three dimensions and student-centered nature of the new Science TEKS. We show teachers how to use student investigation and explanation of a phenomenon using strategies integrating SEPs as well as RTCs for student sensemaking.

Understanding Global Ecology: Interdependent and Interacting Systems, Models, Stability, and Change
To fully understand the biosphere’s interdependent and interacting ecological systems, we need to understand how those systems interact with systems and cycles within the geosphere, hydrosphere, and atmosphere. The Understanding Global Change conceptual framework presents connections and interactions within each system and among systems, and models the effects on ecosystem function and stability of environmental changes caused by both human and non-human factors.

Wise Word Walls
Word walls with a purpose. The organization and color coding of words allows for students to visually receive vocabulary better. These word walls were created by me and can be used for sharing quizzes, vocabulary word games, exit tickets, restroom ticket, etc. Aligns to the STAAR Biology Test for high school. A word wall for every major topic.

Most students in my district take physics, a dreaded and challenging natural science subject. This shift requires a nontraditional teaching approach. Participants model Coulomb's law with balloons and Rice Krispies; design coffee cups preventing heat loss by conduction, convection, and radiation; read children's literature about resilience and intentional physics projects with everyday materials; design and build vehicles, roller coasters, optical and musical instruments, abd electric motors to teach associated physics contents; and redesign curriculum and tests.

Teaching Science With Children’s Literature: Conductors and Insulators
The children's literature non-trade book is created on themes, images and interesting, engaging, motivating and inviting communication stories one can tap into to teach science, a dislikable subject. Attendees will build arrangements that differentiate conductors and insulators using PhET simulation, read Children's literature read-alouds and decode the underlying science concepts, learn how to create an intentional project with everyday materials, and make conductivity testing device to identify conductors and insulators in the room.
