It's the second annual Robot Runway Fashion Show! These Sphero-powered ancient-civilivations-inspired creations will hit the runway tomorrow (after some final alterations). #MakerEd #Stem #PBL

We are on day 3 of research for our Ancient Civilizations project. Epic, classroom books, and internet research have been helpful, but this @schoolai.com space which acts as an interview with someone from their civilization was the best yet!

Our #OneWord stickers are almost ready to Cricut cut! They are using #Canva to design the stickers. Thanks to @katiefielding.com for the wonderful @bookcreator.com and @schoolai.com resources to help students reflect on 2024 and choose their word for 2025.

@jcaseley.bsky.social welcome!

@jamieapa.bsky.social welcome!

I love doing #OneWord reflections with students to start the new year. This is a great resource to help students be more self-directed with the process. Thanks, @katiefielding.com! I also like to have students design and create a sticker with our Cricut of their word of the year.

Happy Winter Solstice!

Our school's reindeer, Sparkles, would be lucky to move into this house! Students worked together and used their strengths and interests together to create this beauty. Each and every item was made/designed/crafted/coded by grade 5s. Congrats to the other classes that participated Happy Holidays!

This is a really interesting conversation about AI in schools. Positive use cases, as well as many things that are important for both teachers and our students to understand about these tools and the companies that make them. Worth a listen! youtu.be/kWn2Xj0ktyo?...

@teachbelle.bsky.social welcome!

The final product! #MakerEdNS

Taking part in the @neilsquiresociety.bsky.social Hack the Holidays has become a wonderful annual tradition! We soldered the push switches that will be used to make toys accessible for kids with physical disabilities. #MakerEdNS
