Bravo to AP Environmental Science students and teachers – this group showed stronger learning, and thus earned the highest scores on this exam in more than a decade.

SRD students are finishing up their builds this week. Experimental testing starts next week! @AISDScience @AllenHS_Eagles @AllenSTEAM

#APES students plugging in ALL the things! Looking for trends in data and getting curious about what’s at home. And we teachers get to use collaborative spaces, work with team members, and pool resources. #STEM #STEAM @AISDScience @AllenSTEAM @Allen_ISD @AllenHS_Eagles

@SteamAllen @AllenSTEAM Thanks so much for our goodies!!! Can’t wait to put them to use.

Happy Holidays! This morning we’re delivering cookie decorating boxes to our @AllenSTEAM teachers featuring custom #STEM (content specific) cookie cutters and engraved wooden ornaments.

Our own Blu Cafe was featured in the @dallasobserver_! Congratulations to @ChefDenmanblu and the talented students in our Culinary Arts program. dallasobserver.com/restaurants/bl…

Is it considered experimental error if you’re getting competitive? APES students were modeling the theory of island biogeography today. Small, big, near, and far islands have different biodiversity. @AISDScience @AllenSTEAM

A cool development for the coolest biome!!! pbs.org/newshour/scien…

Putting the A in STEAM. Scientific Research and Design students are learning the importance of COMMUNICATION, ACCURACY, and PRECISION in creating products. @AllenSTEAM @AISDScience

Is it really an environmental science classroom if you don’t have some living organisms running around it? #apes

Playing with legos is required in class? No seriously…..we’re working on the fundamentals of engineering design @AllenSTEAM

Students testing ecological tolerance of salinity on sea monkeys (aka brine shrimp). I can’t tell you how good it feels to do labs again @AllenSTEAM

@Delta I am having an emergency with an unaccompanied minor and need to change pickup info. I have been trying to get in touch with customer service for 5 hours. I keep waiting, getting cut off, etc. How do I reach an actual human being?

@Marion_AIM it wasn’t a Mars rover, but she was super excited to see a lunar rover and look over the things that made it successful on the moon

@Marion_AIM @GiftedTawk We need to see if there’s a way to pair up my kids with yours for Mondrian activities. We do a scaling/collaboration activity with a Mondrian piece.

Mondrian MADNESS for the WIN! Thanks @GiftedTawk for sharing these amazing brain challenges. These 2nd and 3rd graders love them! #MavericksOnAMission

@Marion_AIM Love it! The STEAM kids actually built some of these designs....

Designing ways to safely deliver candy to trick or treaters while staying 6 ft away! Can you spot the simple machines we are planning to use? #mavericksonamission

@Marion_AIM @gregtangmath Doing math like a girl!!! Working it all out.

Warming up our brains this AM with some @gregtangmath Trick or Treat puzzles! #mavericksonamission

The first engineering design project is complete...contactless candy delivery systems for Halloween. Slingshot, chute, slide, and pulley systems were created. @AllenSTEAM #ScientificResearchAndDesign

@Marion_AIM Doing math like a girl!!!

Taking a brain break and creating some 3D dodecahedron pumpkins from instructables.com. Such a great task that allows for discussion about math concepts such as nets, polygons, symmetry and more! #mavericksonamission

The smell of sawdust in the air and the sound of power tools. It’s great to be back in the Maker Space!!! We’re working on engineering contactless candy delivery systems for Halloween. @AllenSTEAM #ScientificResearchAndDesign
