We're back! After a 2 1/2 year pause, today marks the return of our LIVE student-run broadcast, WHMS News! Today we featured students in Dr. Heyde's homeroom. It's good to be back. Let's always remember to be HAWKS... #gohawks39 @MSloanTeaches @HawkWolf39

Google Expeditions may be gone, but that didn't stop us from experiencing lunar phases with a YouTube VR video. #gohawks39 @HawkWolf39

Quarterly meeting with our @Schoology rep! We chat about new updates, items on the roadmap, and ask lots of questions. Any other @Schoology users?!?! @HawkWolf39 @edtechgeekette #gohawks39 #alwayslearning #stayinginnovative

Everything from @MySlingStudio still works! We are on target to bring back our *LIVE*, student-Led, morning announcements for the New Year. @MSloanTeaches and I are pumped for WHMS News!!! #gohawks39 @HawkWolf39

Excited to have @edtechgeekette join us for a great maker activity today! It was an excellent (and fun!) opportunity for students to work collaboratively and creatively! #GoHawks39

Maker Challenge of the day: Covid closed the parks, so students built swings for our stuffed animal friends. @HawkWolf39 #gohawks39

Positivity Jars at HMS with @MSloanTeaches "Given the year we have had, we thought it was particularly important to do an activity that allows us to express self-love and identify happiness in our lives." Students will add positive thoughts every week. #PositiveVibes
