A4: start small and continue to grow+improve. We start with a week and a focus essential, then either build on or plan again. It’s just important to start somewhere. Start thinking. Start engaging. #pblchat
A3: I am always fascinated by school dynamics and Ts who come with standards to find a project v. Ts who come with a project to align with standards. It’s also hard to not find the science in things! #pblchat

Q3: How do #PBL and #PlaceBasedEducation mesh with standards?
(This is the question to head off the "but we have to teach the standards and don't have time for extras" argument 😁).

A2: solving local challenges. Locally we are looking at land management, invasive species, and stewardship. Even with a global place, nice to connect it back home 💕
A1: PLACE can help students see themselves in the world by starting locally, focusing on impact in their daily lives. Love that PlaceBL can be repeated in a similar geographic or demographic to provide connection. #pblchat

*admin* Huge shout out to @stemakers Linnea Gibson for some #CitizenScienceMonth this week. We appreciate it! Seems like a great time with spring and more time at home.
Paraphrased: we are all experiencing the same catalyst right now, #COVID19, it’s what we do next that make the biggest impact on education @suzieboss #SUZIEistheBOSS
