One of my favorites part of the last two weeks was collaborating with LMS @MrsHBurnett1 on Ozobot lessons for Grades 3-5 while the Makerspace was used for testing. #EngageYCSD @SESBulldog

We had our 1st Makerspace/STEAM Club meeting yesterday @CoventryYC. Our 2nd & 3rd grade club members used a variety of supplies to build bridges for a toy car to cross. @ycsdstem #engageYCSD

Snowball Catapult Challenges today with Mrs.Rodgers and Mrs.Eacho’s classes @SESBulldog I saw many different ways to make a catapult. 👍#engageYCSD @ycsdstem

Conlon’s 2nd grade class @CoventryYC met the Snowball Catapult Challenge and learned how to code the Dash robots using the Blockly app. #EngageYCSD @ycsdstem

Our @CoventryYC 3rd graders have loved learning how to use @canva for Education to create Bar and Pictographs. #EngageYCSD

Mrs.Clark’s class @SESBulldog had fun learning how to code with Colby & Jack, the Code & Go mice. @ycsdstem #EngageYCSD

Carter made a spinning holiday tree during Snap Circuit exploration today when Mr. Holley’s class visited the Makerspace. Happy Holidays everyone! @SESBulldog @ycsdstem

Having a great start to VSTE, even though it’s a Sunday 🤣

At VSTE with the incredible IIC team! The energy is contagious, the ideas are flowing and it’s only day 1🙌🏾🤓.

We broke out @ #VSTE22 !! @ycsdstem @YCSDInnovates

One of my favorite things about Makerspace is when teachers get just as excited as the students. Check out the faces of @KimStratton2 and Veronica Morales. @ycsdstem @SESBulldog #LeadYCSD

5th graders @SESBulldog constructed Rubberband Racers and met the Long Shot Challenge. Colton and Mason in Mr. Holley’s class had the longest distance with 58ft. @ycsdstem #EngageYCSD

I had so much fun working with @CoventryYC Kindergarten students this week introducing them to the basics of coding the Bee-Bots. Next it was the teachers’ turn to guide the exploration. #EngageYCSD @ycsdstem

KEVA plank challenge with Gr3 @SESBulldog Build a wider structure on top of a small base. How tall can you make it without falling? Loved their creativeness! #EngageYCSD

@MrsHBurnett1 is co-sponsoring Coding & Robotics Club with me this year @SESBulldog. Thank you for helping to lead. 😁👍#LeadYCSD

A week late, but still wanted to post: Robotics & Coding club @SESBulldog is off and rolling. Students practiced coding with @WonderWorkshop Dash Robots. #EngageYCSD

A little bit of 3rd grade Animal Adaptation review using @swardensky’s digital breakout = a whole lot of fun!! @CoventryYC #EngageYCSD

This afternoon @MrsHBurnett1 and I used the new VR goggles at @SESBulldog with a 2nd grade class. We reviewed weather systems. The students were so excited! #EngageYCSD @ycsdstem

Thanks @swardensky for such a great resource. We are having so much fun with Digital Breakouts! #EngageYCSD
