#CurrentScience

I strive to teach literacy in my science classes almost daily. @Scholastic ScienceWorld Magazine is a great resource for this. I use them weekly to introduce reading strategies to help my middle school students to grapple with text. #scienceworld #currentscience

THIS is a bumblebee brain. 🐝 Huge thanks to @cwru's Dr. Wolff & students for taking over #CurrentScience yesterday! We explored #invertebrate brains, brain histology images & real-time brain activity. #goCMNH 📸: Bumblebee brain stained w/ fluorescent dyes & digitally colored

Join us where the line between #art & #nature blur! 🎨🌿   We’re so excited to host artist & activist, Geo Rutherford, in the #CurrentScience studio! Stop by tomorrow (9/11) from 11a-1p to learn about her recent work, "On the Threshold of the Great Lakes." #goCMNH

Our day just got way more ☀️! Meet @JasonMikellTV today in our #CurrentScience studio!   Get to know @wkyc #meteorologist, Jason Mikell, as he floods (pun intended) our social channels for #BlackHistoryMonth…

On Saturday, Feb. 12, celebrate the International Day of #WomenandGirlsinScience! 🔬 At 11am, visit our #CurrentScience space in-person or online during a Facebook Live for an opportunity to meet & interact with @goCMNH's female #scientists:

@goCMNH Head of Collections & Collections Manager of Vertebrate #Paleontology, Amanda McGee, received her Masters of Science in Vertebrate Paleontology from the University of Calgary while researching fossil #turtle eggs & embryos! Can you guess which of these facts is a lie?

1. I have done field work to excavate my fave type of dino – Anklyosaurs! 2. I have worked on field crews where I was the only woman. 3. When I was a kid, I had a pet turtle named Michelle. 4. When I was a kid, I used to excavate my sandbox & pretend I was a paleontologist!

Meet Amanda virtually, or in-person when you register for tomorrow’s #WomenInScience Day celebration! All virtual events will also be live-streamed in our #CurrentScience area. Register:
