Great example of design thinking and creativity… Someone saw the Pro football Hall of Fame and thought “that looks like a citrus fruit juicer” and decided to make that happen.

Headed to a school in Canton, Ohio today… But first, some great hotel art with a STEM theme

Saw the new Alton Brown tour show… Like previous tours and his work on TV, lots of humor & stories…. And I’m a math and science teacher, lots of great ideas for food science. See it for yourself!

It’s true. AI can’t cook. And the shirt doesn’t lie.

The best part? Parents who got to hold in their hand a 3d printed cookie cutter they designed all by themselves! STEM is rocket science & flying cars, but parents need to know how easy it is to get started & help their own kids be better at STEM!

Latest update on Artemis III 🚀
NASA Marshall
@NASA_MarshallOct 18
#ICYMI: The booster's for NASA's Artemis III mission are officially stacked! Next up, the SLS core stage will be integrated with the boosters, completing the rocket’s “short stack” configuration that will be used during a future tanking test. Learn more: go.nasa.gov/4BcsSLa
Engineers with NASA’s Exploration Ground Systems complete integration of the aerodynamic nose cones onto the left and right forward segments on the twin SLS (Space Launch System) solid rocket boosters, finishing their stacking operations for Artemis III inside the Vehicle Assembly Building’s High Bay 3 at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida on Wednesday, Sept. 30, 2026. Each forward assembly contains an aerodynamic top, a forward skirt housing avionics, and frustum housing motors that allow the boosters to separate from the SLS core stage after launch. The twin solid boosters will help support the remaining rocket components and the Orion spacecraft during final assembly of the Artemis III rocket and provide more than 75 percent of the total SLS thrust during liftoff from NASA Kennedy’s Launch Pad 39B.

Over the last 18 months, we’ve gotten to watch a park be constructed right outside our classroom window! Here’s 300+ photos of the progress from start to finish of Unity Park in Grand Rapids:

I showed my students the videos of Tesla roadster in classes today… “No it’s not AI” “It’s using air, not fuel” “Everyone who designed that flying car learned their math and science in school just like you are learning it now.”

Our school had a “parents night” on Friday… I was asked to show what we do in our Science & STEM classes… so I taught parents the engineering design cycle, then used it to build with KEVAplanks, Tinkercad, & how to use calipers to accurately measure a LEGO. (1/2)

Hey teachers, don’t give candy to your students, give them a simple lesson in cooking… Great job @smorrisey!

I like to cook from time to time for my 5th grade students. Today I sauteed asparagus for them. I sauteed the asparagus in olive oil and added salt, pepper, and garlic powder. One student was adamant that he hated asparagus. I gently encouraged him to try a spear. He came back up for thirds. It would have been fourths or fifths if we had it. I overheard another student say, "this is so good. I don't think my parents know how to cook asparagus."

Hey teachers… if you’re teaching coding & robotics, you should also be teaching metallurgy & fabrication

Just heard someone describe how their dad takes his grandkids out in the woods & teaches them skills. They call it “Grandpa Scouts” in their family.

There are linear equations everywhere for those with eyes to see Thanks to @Windows (for the wallpaper) and to @Desmos (for the easy-to-use grapher)

If your car displays this on a cold Fall morning, it is such a good opportunity to talk about science and how lower temperatures cause lower air pressure. Science! #STEMisAllAroundUs

Nothing says fall in Texas quite like the return of the tire pressure light. That little glow is also a good reminder that cooler weather is on the way, and now is the time to start getting winter ready! Winter preparedness starts before winter does.
A warning light for low tire pressure glows yellow against a dark background, with the caption 'A Texans first sign of Fall.' Below the image, there is the logo for the City of Plano Emergency Management.
