We will see you at NSTA in Boston this year. @SenechalSci124 and I will be presenting on our path to Project Based Learning! @IpswichPublic @PBLWorks @twagnerIPS @Changeissimple1

[Samantha Colby @ColbyIMS]

Future scientists exploring, learning and enjoying the experience. Happy Friday

Just another in a long line of evidence of why IMS is the best middle school in the nation

Racing the solar charged electric go karts that students built down the hall of our school today. It took a village but these memories of 6th grade science will not soon fade. @Changeissimple1 @PBLWorks @revisionsolar @NEED_Project @NSTA @SenechalSci124

Science class in the garden today. It was too nice to be inside when we have such a wonderful space to use.

[Samantha Colby @ColbyIMS]

Sixth grade students at IMS problem solving with perseverance and teamwork. Learning so many skills including using different tools and wiring electronics to power the motors of their go karts. @Changeissimple1 @revisionsolar @NEED_Project @PBLWorks @ipswich_chron

Students explore sustainable energy by building solar powered electric go-karts. Paint went on today and we will finish them next week. Create, invent, build. #IMSSTEAM @NEED_Project @Changeissimple1 @revisionsolar @PBLWorks @NSTA @SenechalSci124

A new study finds adult cells keep a record of which genes were activated during their early development. Even more surprisingly, the memory is retrievable, which may be a game-changer for cancer and regenerative medicine. https://t.co/22M7g2VDmp

IMS 6th grade students gave tours of our walk through cell today to admin., teachers and 8th grade students. Students are the experts and take pride in their work. #PBL #IMSSTEAM #IMSTigers @PBLWorks @SenechalSci124

[Samantha Colby @ColbyIMS]

Building and planting our hydroponic tower gardens today. Thank you @Changeissimple1 @revisionsolar for making this possible.

[Ipswich Public Schools @IpswichPublic]

“Change is Simple” partnered with Mrs. Christine Senechal and Mrs. Samantha Colby to create a Sustainable Communities program that is integrated into their existing science curriculum🌿🌱🌎 https://t.co/8gvKUtWU3M

IMS grade 6 STEAM class exploring solar energy and hydroponics. We will see how our garden grows this summer. @revisionsolar @Changeissimple1 @SenechalSci124 #IMSSTEAM

[Samantha Colby @ColbyIMS]

IMS sixth grade working on sustainable energy and building solar powered hydroponic tower gardens. A HUGE thank you to @Changeissimple1 and @revisionsolar for your time and "energy" #IMSSTEAM #IMSTIGERS #SenechalSci124
