Today in @PS16School @AdobeExpress afterschool program we used AI to type how we wanted our self-portraits to look like and generated cartoonlike images of ourselves we also practiced leaving meaningful comments for #digcit @MRamos16R @NYCDOEOLS

@gikati1 @Minecraft @PS16School @MRamos16R @ChrissyVigsPS16 @NYCDOEOLS The kids did so incredible with this that we put everything to the side and they wanted to continue. Then we will transfer to Minecraft if they ever fix it 😤

@sleepyhd16 @Minecraft @PS16School @MRamos16R @ChrissyVigsPS16 @NYCDOEOLS The ability to pivot is ❤️😍❤️😍❤️

When @Minecraft Education isn't working for your afterschool program you do an unplugged activity...researching, designing, planning and building biomes @PS16School @MRamos16R @ChrissyVigsPS16 @NYCDOEOLS #minecrafteducation

Worked in our greenhouse again today. Learned about composting, observed worms and made our worm bins today! It's so fun to watch these kiddies begin the session saying they aren't touching worms to by the end playing with handfuls of them! @MRamos16R @PS16School @NYCDOEOLS

The rain didn't stop us from starting our greenhouse work yesterday. @PS16School stdts learned what a greenhouse is, searched for and collected worms, composed and planted! @MRamos16R @ChrissyVigsPS16 @NYCDOEOLS @SMartinezMath
