Librarians are encouraged to help students to create digital products that en­gage them in critical thinking, collaboration and authentic real-world problem-solving. One way librarians are doing this? With makerspaces. bit.ly/42eytiU #Librarians #Makerspaces

What is a school #library to you? 🤔📚

@Jarrett_Lerner Funniest middle grade book - Klawde: Evil Alien Warlord Cat. By Johnny Marciano

What is the funniest kids’ book you’ve ever read? (Particularly looking for Middle Grade and Young Adult recs, but all welcome.)

The sky dome planetarium c/o @MobileEdProd visited our school today. Students learned about space including constellations , planets , the sun and moon. A great big thanks to Stacey, our wonderful presenter!#ArlingtonCSD

Another math night tweet, because it is too cool not to share! ⁦@ArlingtonCSD⁩ ⁦@Barbkurdz⁩ ⁦@ValleyPTA⁩ #mathisfun

Math night at West Road was so much fun! Thank you @Barbkurdz and Mrs. Michelin for organizing and thank you @ValleyPTA for supporting the program. @ArlingtonCSD #measuringdistance #angles #computationalthinking

A great big thank you to Miss Julie for coming to our school to share all the wonderful programs happening @PVFLibrary this summer. Check out the library website at pleasantvalleylibrary.org for details. @ArlingtonCSD

@lesliekorn @MrsDEspositoWRS @MeetEdison @ThamesStacey The NASA site has many photos of the MARS surface. We used one of their photos in a Google slide and added numbers for the locations we wanted students to visit with their "Rover". We enlarged the map with a poster maker.

@MrsDEspositoWRS @MeetEdison @ThamesStacey @HildaCioffi Where did you get the maps and lessons if I may ask? Thanks

Exploring the surface of Mars just like Resilience in our One School One Book #ARoversStory. Students are programming #EdisonRobots with code to reach their targets. @ThamesStacey @HildaCioffi

In connection with our OSOB, A Rover’s Story by @jasminewarga, students programed Edison robot rovers to navigate to 3 locations on a map of the Mars surface. So much learning with fun #STEM ! @meetedison @ArlingtonCSD

Having fun with our Bee-Bots and Edison Robots during library enrichment!

Our first day of Spring Break may bring a little rain but here's something fun to kick off break - rain or shine! The Poughkeepsie Book Festival is taking place tomorrow, April 1st from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.!

Students in 3rd-5th grade are creating stop motion films with Legos. It’s so fun to watch them in action!

Today’s challenge: draw a simple road map and program Edison to drive home. Then engineer a Lego snowplow attachment to clear the snow ⁦@SalContesJr⁩ ⁦@ThamesStacey⁩ #libraryenrichment #stem #acsdlib

Maker Mornings are in full swing in our library. ⁦@SalContesJr⁩ ⁦@ThamesStacey⁩ #studentchoice #stem #acsdlibrary

Robots in the library! The challenge: create a program that will make the Edison robot drive in a square shape. ⁦@SalContesJr⁩ ⁦@ThamesStacey⁩ #acsdlibrary #right-angles

@pernilleripp One of my favorite picture books to show character change over time is The Quiltmaker's Gift by Jeff Brumbeau

After the great response to the other posts about our electronic holiday card project, I have posted all of the original templates that I designed to download for free from my website! passionatelycurioussci.weebly.com/blog/electroni… Happy Holidays Everyone!!

#WinterBreak is upon us and we know students, teachers, librarians and school staff members have surely earned some rest and relaxation. We hope your "To Be Read" list is full of fun leisure reads!
