Saw some awesome student engagement in 6th grade math classrooms at @JEShepardMiddle as students tried out their brand new dry-erase desks! #WeAreDPS @DPS_K12C_I @DurhamPublicSch
Visited @HillsideHS for lunch duty, and also got to see some awesome math teachers building mathematical community! Ms. Baptist with the mathematical riddles, Ms. Wooding with a number strategy game, and Ms. Dacres recruiting for Math Club! #wearedps@DurhamPublicSch @DPS_K12C_I
More a-MAZE-ing #summermath at @Carrington_DPS this AM where the 6th grade teachers are working together to give their students an authentic experience! Can’t wait to see these kiddos program their robots to make their way through these puzzles!! @DurhamPublicSch @DPS_K12C_I
Our Wildlife students @Carrington_DPS are studying mycology by learning the process of inoculating logs with shiitake mushrooms! Fungi are important in food and medicine production. @DurhamPublicSch#STEM 🪵🍄🔨
I know I’ve been bragging on all the #summermath coding, but another key component of our work is skill fluency essential for success next year! Check out these @GithensMiddle teachers building up students’ computational and algebraic fluency! @DPS_K12C_I @DurhamPublicSch
Mr. Anderson’s #summermath students @lucas_middle were mapping and measuring a maze that they will later code robots to navigate. Planning is an important step in writing code that works! #DPSOSL@DurhamPublicSch @DPS_K12C_I
Mr. Fils-Aime’s students at @JEShepardMiddle starting off the morning navigating the coordinate plane through coding! So much power in the instant feedback… wrong answer? How to we adjust and persevere? #summermath @DPS_K12C_I @DurhamPublicSch
@DurhamPublicSch Operation Summer Learning math + coding is in full effect! Nothing like hearing the collective “whoa” in this classroom the first time they hit run. Just wait until we break out the robots… #summermath @DPS_K12C_I @ucdcstem
Day two of coding PD with @DurhamPublicSch#summermath teachers. We are learning SO much, and are so ready for the best summer ever with our kiddos! @DPS_K12C_I
Launching our summer math training with our partners at @linkbots so we’re ready to engage students in coding and robotics to learn math this summer! #summermath@DurhamPublicSch @DPS_K12C_I
