Things to ponder before and after Workshop 2: 1. What are the tradeoffs between activities focused on teachers' objectives and those allowing students to explore their own ideas? 2. How might you interpret a situation where, at the culmination of a unit, consensus among students regarding a difficult idea in science is reached? Where consensus is not reached? 3. Does it make sense to teach about the states of matter in Grades K-2?
Please think of and describe three different, simple lessons you might use to teach your students about the sense of sight (or lack of it). Summarize these in three short paragraphs in your journal.
