45. Using Phenomena to Engage Students


Listen Later

Using phenomena is a great way to engage your students but it can be so overwhelming trying to figure out what to do or how to get started. If you’re using NGSS or other standards that utilize phenomena, but are struggling to incorporate them in a meaningful way, I’m going to break it down for you! In this episode, we’re diving into engaging students through phenomena.

Resources Mentioned:

  • Next Generation Science Standards
  • It’s Not Rocket Science Units
  • Biology everyday phenomenon: Cancer Statistics 
  • Biology anchoring phenomenon: Comparing Genetics
  • Ecosystem in a Bottle investigation
  • Support and motion unit 
  • Anatomy everyday phenomena: Wellness Trends
