The phrases, “learning experience” and “student exploration” are some I’d use to describe what I learned from my study of the Visible Learning for Science text if I had to explain it in a sentence or two. I emerged from my reflection on it with three main professional goals for the 2019-2020 school year, my worst-ever year for student engagement: to collect student artifacts, to enhance rigor, and to foster growth mindset. I wanted to acquire evidence of their learning, I wanted that learning to be challenging – considering the 60% mindset I’ve discussed in former episodes – and I wanted my students to feel loved and nurtured through the process – both by me, their teacher, but also to learn to give themselves grace in the doing. And, that’s where my lesson planning began.

But, I’m a cyber school teacher! Don’t think that didn’t give me major pause! HOW WAS I GOING TO CREATE MEANINGFUL LEARNING EXPERIENCES IN SCIENCE FOR STUDENTS WHO COULDN’T PUT THEIR HANDS ON ANYTHING?! I turned, first, to technology and then revisited my own professional classroom goals to realize any medium can be transformed into a "learning experience".

To revisit any of the 5 Element Framework discussed in this series, remember to visit my website at www.labineverylesson.com/5elements. There, you can download the complete guide that provides you with examples or recommendations of how to implement each element into your own lesson plans.

When you share your email with me to get the guide, you’ll also get added to my email list. That might be super useful if you think any of my prepared lessons might work for your students in your classroom. Each time I publish new lessons for sale – those that aren’t already on TpT – I’m going to be publishing them to only my website for 1 week at a lower price before publishing them on TpT for the masses. When you’re on my email list, you’ll get first-dibs and a discount!
