What a great job they did and love that they shared with the 1s. Air hockey game is creative.
Lots of fun in the lab this afternoon as @Sinclair_ES 3rd graders shared their cardboard arcade games w/ 1st grade friends! So impressed with their work!

Fourth grade is working on a 3D topological map of the Schuylkill River watershed. We’ve never done this before so the kids are excited to see if we can make it to scale. #MakerEd #fourthgrademakers #lasercutting @UniversalLaser @briebdaley @friendscentral

“Engineering stimulates the mind. Kids get bored easily. They have got to get out and get their hands dirty: make things, dismantle things, fix things. When the schools can offer that, you’ll have an engineer for life.”

The purpose of education isn't only to impart knowledge and skills. It's to instill a love of learning.
Intellectual curiosity is seeing as much beauty in ideas and data as you do in art and music.
A mark of a great teacher is a room filled with intrinsic motivation.

Adversity isn't always a test to conquer. Sometimes it's a struggle to endure.
Resilience is not a race to bounce back from hardship. It's a commitment to keep going in the face of hardship.
All your scars may not make you stronger, but they do remind you of your strength.

Road salt can help melt ice, but it harms aquatic life and corrodes our infrastructure, which ultimately pollutes our drinking water. Consider focusing on shoveling and only using road salt as a last resort. To learn more before tonight's storm:
