127 Establishing An Anchor Phenomenon Routine

The anchor phenomenon routine plays an important role in science classes as students develop their abilities to figure out the questions they need to answer to meet their learning goals. In a perfect world, students work through an anchor experience, ask exactly the right questions, and all together identify and decide the most important question to investigate first... but we know these things don’t always (ever?) happen. So how can we get our students where they need to be? An anchor phenomenon routine builds student skills while navigating the learning forward. In this episode, Nicole shares her process to provide an example of what your anchor phenomenon routine might look like. *More Resources: * * * *109 Improving Your Classroom Culture After a Break * 111 Rethink Your Classroom Management Plan Now * Focusing Student Questions With Your Anchor Phenomenon Routine (iExploreScience) * Anchor Phenomenon Example Lesson (iExploreScience) * Four Ways To Actively Engage Students With Anchor Phenomena (iExploreScience) * Teaching Science in 3D on Instagram & Facebook Are you looking for a quick, easy and FREE way to improve your lessons?
