Fire prevention week @WASDSpotlight K/1! We read a non-fiction book about firefighters and then made a simple STEM project of firefighters using a fire pole! Why is sliding down a pole faster than walking down stairs?
Can you write code to help the LEGO guy find fiction and nonfiction books in the library? @WASDSpotlight #CSinPA #csunplugged
Mini lesson today about 9/11 with 3/4th graders…they loved this time lapse video of the Freedom Tower construction youtu.be/NbA89YbWoL8 then built their own versions with @LEGO_Group ! @WASDSpotlight #STEMinPA
Kicked off @RoboWeek with a great group of kindergarteners @BlossburgElem with @AmyNybeck! We learned the word "orbit" and used @codewithroot to model how the Earth orbits the sun! @SouthernTiogaSD #LrnrDrvn #CSinPA #CSforAllPA
Classic egg drop challenge on this sunny spring day! Stay tuned for the possibly messy results 🍳 @SouthernTiogaSD #LrnDrvn
Got the bots out this week in a 6th grade math class @WLM_Elem! Such a perfect application of coordinate grid geometry! Thanks @codewithroot for a well designed activity that even worked for our remote learners too! @SouthernTiogaSD #LrnrDrvn #CSinPA
Remote Robotics?! Heck yes! Used the remote control feature in @zoom_us to allow a student to control my screen and code the @codewithroot . Distance learning with physical devices is possible! @SouthernTiogaSD
12 Days of Programming Fun for the Holidays! Make a copy and share with your students! Thanks @codeorg for creating such great @hourofcode activities!

Remote coding with @codewithroot ! I love the online simulator and I love that I have a 7th grade student working in text based coding! @SouthernTiogaSD
Our 3rd Annual Children’s Business Fair was a success! Over $2,000 raised for local charities and such a great experience for these young entrepreneurs!
So excited to be able to host the 3rd Annual Wellsboro Children’s Business Fair this year! If you’re local to Tioga County, please share and let me know if you’d like to participate!

As we prepare for the week ahead, it's important to keep in mind the mental models we make and the effect they have on our behavior and our reality. Remember that your mental models matter!
