I'm already considering the ways in which I will be able to incorporate the information from our new textbook into my own classroom. Honestly, I think there are so many ways these concepts can bleed past my Science teachings into English, Math and Art. I love the idea of teaching these invaluable Human-centered concepts in a blended way so that my kids don't even realize the scope of their learning #sneakyteaching . There is nothing more important to me as an educator than helping children to become conscientious of their actions and how those actions affect everyone and everything they touch. It makes me think of a portion of one of favorite quotes, "... as no cause remains without its due effect from greatest to least, from a cosmic disturbance down to the motion of your hand, like produces like..."
Seriously though, I can't give up cheese.
I really like that quote! Since the project wet experience, I have been a lot more conscious of water consumption. Turning off water while brushing my teeth, letting dishes soak instead of keeping the water running, and placing any coffee that I didn’t drink in the refrigerator to heat up later are a few ways I’ve changed to preserve water. I plan on doing more things throughout my daily routine to continue down this path of water preservation, so we can continue to enjoy cheese and many other great things water is essential for
ReplyDeleteI'm really glad there is someone else out there willing to do their part to save the cheese!!
DeleteThat demonstration blew my mind as well. It was an insane and scary and brilliant illustration of our legit water situation.
ReplyDeletePS-I'm dying over that Chuck. E. Cheese pic. You've seen the documentary about the people who buy those bands and program them to sing different songs, right? https://youtu.be/b90Cf6ARscc
I AM OBSESSED WITH THOSE ANIMITRONICS... Especially that duck that blinks in the really rigid motions!!
