On World Migratory Bird Day\, we invite you to join us for a morning walk in Manhattan’s Central Park\, an urban oasis for birds as well as people. Each spring\, Central Park becomes a global birding hot spot! Thousands of colorful songbirds migrating from the tropics stop in the park each day in April\, May and early June to refuel on insects before continuing north toward their breeding grounds. \nTake a leisurely walk with us through the north end of the park. While there is never a guarantee of what we will see\, expect to see flycatchers\, warblers\, thrushes\, raptors and more\, and we will search for rarities amongst them. Learn about beahviors and how to use guides\, apps\, and your eyes and ears to identify the birds we’ll see. Rain of shine the birds will be in the park\, but if it’s raining too much we will postpone. Bring walking footwear\, binoculars\, a camera with a good telephoto lens if you have one\, and water (and coffee). After an introduction\, including slides and other classroom-friendly materials\, we will start walking and watching. Don’t be late! We will set out 9:00am sharp. \nNOTE: This is a fully outdoor event. We will pass bathrooms along the way\, but please dress appropriately\, wear sunscreen and a hat\, and bring water and a snack as needed. Please do NOT bring your dog\, as that may scare birds away.

SUMMARY:Life Science New Regents - Mapping the new labs to your curriculum.
DESCRIPTION:Joni us for a Zoom working session focused on 3D lesson planning and placement of the new labs in your curriculum.Life Science New Regents – Mapping the new labs to your curriculum. Tuesday Sept 3\, 2024 6:00-8:00pm ET\, Via Zoom Led by Chris Resch  Plan your new Regents Life Science Labs with us! Join us September 3 for a two hour virtual planning session! Work with supportive\, experienced\, mentors and a community of colleagues\, to map the new labs to your curriculum. This summer we held a sold-out\, one-week\, professional learning workshop focused on the new Life Science Regents Labs. Based on what we learned from our teacher-participants\, Chris Resch and a team of experienced teachers and teacher-leaders will host three in-person lab workshops\, and four virtual planning sessions over the 2024-2025 school year. This Zoom session is the first in the series. Life Science education is often associated with memorization. But does it have to be? The Life Sciences is a subject rich in anchoring models that all tie together and build off each other and create a rich story of interactions and scale! Recent shifts in pedagogical research\, NGSS/NYS Regents standards have caused movement towards this more conceptually based approach to biology education. We want to help you move your lessons and teaching there as well!  Summer 2024 Alumni Testimonials“I found the workshop really helpful and thought provoking… It was hands on and concrete and we were able to brainstorm approaches with other teachers in the same and in different circumstances than us.” Tobie B.“It was a great model for \, since it was taught/explained/ run by real classroom teachers. I love the simple idea of doing the class as teacher mode and student mode.” Joanna P.“… was extremely helpful to unpack and grapple with the information alongside veteran teachers who had so much to share from their own experiences teaching Biology to middle and high school students. Chris is an especially calm teacher\, and his approach with us in the workshop allowed us to experience what our students will experience as they embark on a more inquiry based approach to studying Biology\, as well as validating our angst as teachers in helping our students build the skills needed to be successful…” Ruth F. Series registration will be posted shortly! Priorities for the New Life Science Regents Labs Series: Curricular sequencing and placement of the labs.Cross-unit connections to the bigger ideas and being more intentionally three dimensional.Claims Evidence Reasoning (CER) model will be woven through all three of the labs.Focus on pedagogical shifts inherent to NGSS/NYSSLS. Planning for the shift towards science literacy and practices\, and away from tons of facts.Workshops in the series will target launching phenomena\, Socratic Dialogue\, and narratives\, and highlight very concrete lessons that complement the NYS labs.We look forward to supporting you this year!
