All kinds of pre-K engagement today @NorthPointeA5 . Parents joined their littles for some problem solving math stations this morning. Then this afternoon pre-k practiced signing into a Chromebook with their quick card for the first time! @AndersonFive @a5disteam

First grade @NorthPointeA5 used Legos to show their knowledge of urban, suburban, and rural communities. Then they created a pathway to travel through the communities using @Sphero Indi. @a5disteam

The Great Turkey Race was on @VarennesA5 using @BeebotCo! Students created a program to help the “turkey” escape being eaten for Thanksgiving dinner! Great teamwork, excellent problem solving, and all turkeys escaped the challenge! @a5disteam

You know it’s a productive and busy day when there are 6 different technology tools on your desk! #PlanningforEngagement #ProblemSolving #DigitalIntegration @a5disteam

In preK, practicing writing letters and their names became more engaging when @Ozobot was used to trace their hard work. @NorthPointeA5 @a5disteam #LittleRobotforLittleLearners

Fourth graders @NorthPointeA5 took on the role of a star in our universe and collaborated with other stars to program @SpheroEdu to form their constellation. Teamwork was shining bright! #VariablesMaketheDifference

When students are reading about the Statue of Liberty @VarennesA5, then they must take a “field trip” to explore and connect all the information they have learned! Authentic conversation with the content and a natural curiosity for learning for the win!

These smiles and celebrations @VarennesA5 came from determination, perseverance, and using their knowledge of multiplication to breakout! @breakoutEDU @a5disteam #engagedfortheWIN

It’s October and that means spooky houses! Art students @NorthPointeA5 using Google Slides to create their project. Students learned how to add animation to an object for even more effect! #digitalart #A5EDventure

Indi @Sphero helped the Pre-K farmers @NorthPointeA5 travel to the apple orchard and collect the apples! Great problem solving skills in these little learners! #A5EDventure @a5disteam

The race is on @VarennesA5! Using @BeebotCo to review place value was a great way to engage students with the content but also support critical thinking skills! A lot of problem solving and celebrating our successes today! #A5EDventure #a5disteam

Best way to start the day! STEM in the Gym brought families @VarennesA5 together before the school day even started! @AndersonFive #A5EDventure

The best way to start a new school year serving a new school! Let the #a5EDventure begin!

From 8:00 this morning until 6:00 tonight, this @NorthPointeA5 team has problem solved challenges, collaborated with teams, created strategies for each new round, and are still smiling and ready for more @VEXRobotics Worlds Competition!

The @VEXRobotics Worlds opening ceremony today and these girls are ready to compete! @NorthPointeA5 @AndersonFive #GirlPowered

When students have choice and take ownership of their learning the engagement is on 🔥! Students @NorthPointeA5 using @WeVideo to create a stop motion video on changes in matter! Creativity in the MakerSpace! #fullSTEAMahead @a5disteam

The video says it all! Engagement, problem solving, collaboration, risk taking, communication, growth mindset... imagine all that our students will take away from this type of learning! @AndersonFive #A5EDventure #fullSTEAMahead

These amazing girls qualified for @VEXRobotics World’s Competition! #JudgesAward #FirstTimeCoders @AndersonFive @NorthPointeA5 Go Yellow Jackets!

So close, 9/10 of the pins knocked down, but a perfect score for student engagement! Bowling for fractions with @SpheroEdu @AndersonFive #A5EDventure

Challenge accepted! Calhoun Academy of the Arts students collaborated and designed snow plows to clear the roads of snow using @Sphero! #FutureEngineers @AndersonFive #a5EDventure
