Science is all about making sense of phenomena. But for many students, talking and writing about science is new. Thatâs why we created these sense-making bookmarks. We think they make the perfect placeholders/helpers for your studentsâ science notebooks.
Whatâs included?
When you download this set, youâll get three different bookmarks:
- My Responsibilities: a set of norms for your science classroom.
- Sentence frames: sentence starters to help your students write and reflect in their science notebooks.
- Discussions starters: questions for responding to other ideas.
There are also three different styles of bookmarks. Choose from color, black and white, and illustrated!
How can I use them?
We love these sense-making bookmarks for holding studentsâ places in their science notebooks but also for giving them a resource when theyâre stuck (kind of like a reading-strategies bookmark!). These are great for when students need reminders about how theyâre expected to participate in science, how to explain their thinking, or how to engage in discussions about science.
