🚀 28 teams, 100+ students from our 9 middle schools, including CLC for the first time, competed in today's Middle School Robotics competition! Congrats to Elise MS for finishing 1st & 2nd! 🎉 Special thanks to @nVent for helping us put on this great event. @MCSDigital #MCSProud

Learning so much and having fun playing with new generative #AI like @ideogram_ai to create images and using prompts with Claude.ai to create educational materials @MCSDigital @ncdpiDTL #NCAICollab

Pumped to be working F2F with all these amazing #educators for @ncdpiDTL #NCAICollab learning about AI in education and #creating resources for teachers and districts! @MCSDigital

5th grd Ss #reading various informational texts about #wildlife crossings, #PB Make Way for Animals, #plan #designed #engineered their own model crossing for a specific #animal and location in Moore County, discussed if animal crossings were beneficial @MCSDigital @MooreSchools

1st grd Ss learned about Mae Jemison and her contributions to #NASA and our country and then used @ScratchJr to #code their #rocket to “fly” through #space to get to the #moon or #earth #BlackHistoryMonth #history #computerscience @MCSDigital @MooreSchools

Parents with rising 3rd through 8th graders check out our great #STEM #camp offered this June #summer #learning #fun #robotics #Engineering

3rd grd Ss #learning about Kathrine Johnson and then #Engineering their own re-entry capsule to fall slowly back to Earth & float on water (paying attention to shapes) #test #redesign #STEM #math #history @MCSDigital @MooreSchools

5th grd Ss #solving adding and subtracting of #fraction problems to find the #code cards with the correct blocks of code to program @WonderWorkshop #DASH #robot to move, dance, and sound just like the teacher’s Dash #STEM #math @MCSDigital @MooreSchools

4th grd Ss comparing #fractions to get the color codes for @Ozobot so he can move through the maze and get to the finish #robots #coding #STEM #math @MCSDigital @MooreSchools

2nd grd Ss #learning about #sound vibrations and waves made their own #instruments (some kazoos and some their own creation) #STEM #music #Engineering #design @MCSDigital @MooreSchools

5th grd Ss loved reenacting the Boston tea party with the help of @WonderWorkshop #DASH #Robot launching “tea crates” into the “harbor” #history #STEM @MCSDigital @MooreSchools
