Another great event learning and sharing AI tools, this time with elementary educators at the HRCE AI-Athon. @edtechcocek

Canva Magic Layers is as advertised ... Magic. Great way to experience what it's all about is to create a design to see how layers can be built. Seeing how they lift off like a label peeling off in water is ... Magic again!

@nanomonx Troubadour continues to be an engaging writing opportunity that promotes student ideas & creativity.

Descriptive phrases to create images for character cards @ MWES. Quick studies in grade 5/6. Next steps: explaining choices & adding background information to complete the full picture.

Maker magic @ HVES

Wonderful to see the product of student research & development of ideas with the support of mentors for the @brilliantbluechallenge national finals in NS. Looking forward to the international level finals next October also in Halifax. brilliantblue.org

Lights, camera, action ... @ OPA! Gr 2 Ss drew the monsters & personalities. Gr 5/6 Ss recreated them with clay & built sets for their stop motion animation movies, complete with dialogue & music. Tomorrow our monsters come to life through voice recordings using @Scratch & @makeymakey

THIS is the magic of maker space & the promise of interaction. Older Ss sharing their @makeymakey projects with P/1 Ss. Various grade levels exploring, creating and building making connections.

No ruler? No problem! After collaborating on their Nurcs & craft stick tower, a fourth grader captured their design with a detailed sketch (including drawing her arm to show scale). That’s measurement, spatial reasoning, & engineering design thinking in action. @nurcstoy.bsky.social #STEM #EduSky

AWE maker space was AWE-some today. They proved that it's not about the stuff, it's the ideas & connections you bring to the space. It starts with, "I notice" and build with, "I wonder if."

Incredible sessions with @misterwashburnedu @logicsacademy sharing CodingVille. @mrshuestis class coded like champions today @brookhouseelementary

Great to see @misterwashburn.bsky.social from @logicsacademy.bsky.social share Codingville with grade six classes today. Best tip; say what you want and then build it with coding blocks.

You can’t design learning. But, you can design conditions for learning. https://www.ajjuliani.com/blog/you-cant-design-learning-but-you-can-design-conditions-for-learning via @AJJuliani

Gr 2 Maker magic @ Brookhouse. It's not about the stuff, it's about what the experience brings ... engaged learners collaborating purposefully.

Always 💗 when a class builds on our TILT sessions. 1st classmates sleuthed their way to match description notes to Canva created images. Then Ss added their reasons for every choice through story writing. Way to go grade 5's!

Shoes ... part 3 Building the tops and planning the script to record/code with Scratch.

#BlueSkyArtShow Today's theme is #Round Thanks for looking;I really appreciate you✨️

What would happen if you mixed two images? Character creation and stop motion animation, that's what!

First, next and last coding stories with Bee Bots in grade P-1. Setting, retelling, planning, co-creating - Voila ... stories!

1st step of our design thinking challenge; shoe design & media messages.

Much enthusiasm today at drawing the story of ‘There Was a Princess Long Ago’ after singing it with the piano, and acting it out in a circle.

Productive maker magic this afternoon @ BES. Great support from @mrbaskwill.bsky.social to get the 3D printer put together & running. Artifact museum showcase planning in the works.

Beginning, Middle, End coding stories with Bee bots. Team work and creativity on the move @ WBS in grade 2. Using settings to launch story plans with jot notes. Oral story telling to develop ideas for writing workshop.

Troubadour Nanaomonx gets writers thinking about many layers and elements of their stories. Great start with grade 3-4 @ MES. "I can use the story in my folder here." Yes you CAN. Reciprocal use of tools for the win!

Coding pixel images & heart patterns with many Ss @ MES. Creativity begins the exploration, connection keeps you going further with your own ideas.

Friendly reminder that AI detectors are not reliable. No matter how much we wish they were, they should not be used. #EduSky

Great for writing provocation; choice, geometric shapes, patterns, creating cards for classmates...

I’d love to walk you through my process and help you build your own apps, tools, and games. Classy Vibing with AI begins February 18 in Google Classroom with weekly videos and optional assignments. learninginhand.com/classyvibing

I can’t stop building little apps with AI! Yesterday I made one that lets you color a heart made of triangles. Tap each piece to cycle through your palette. Surprisingly satisfying. #EduSky #AIinEducation go.apphive.us/heartist

Maker space magic @ BES. Collaboration builds community every time. "It really works." "I figured it out!" "When we can come back?" Curriculum connections & content flow between this space & the classroom.

Tinkering with Tinkercad in 5H @ BA

Descriptive writing in motion with mindful detail to word choice and product creation in 4B @ WBS

Day 2: Recording character comments with Scratch & listening to them with Makey Makey @ HES

STEM starts @ HES with Shalyn William's book, Building Dreams. Prototypes next, then the ideas come to life with wires & voice recordings and sparkle!

Now that it’s here and the 3-day weekend gives me a chance to just sit a bit, it’s time to crack open the new @meehanedu.bsky.social & @mrmatera.bsky.social book! #edusky

Pixelated personality in grade 3-4 D @ HES as Ss explore coded Google Sheets to make their creations. Building on their math puzzle pixel reveal pictures exp, they are ready to code their own page.

Innovation is seeing connections & potential in your surroundings.The brightness of the morning sun across the crisp snow inspired layering of shapes & skills to build new scenes. Poetic pictures in Gr 5 @mrkehoe.bsky.social @ HES
