After making and testing circuits, conductors, and insulators, our class hosted another “Dial an Expert” and FaceTimed an industrial electrician and asked questions about electricity. #vegaelem
To learn about molecules and states of matter we pretended to be the inventors of the thermometer. We learned why it works and then “dialed” an expert patent attorney to see how to protect an idea or invention. #myMISD#vegaelem#STEM
There are lots of choices on what we buy to wear every day. There are great kids out there who’s style will never go out. #vegaelem#vegaliveskind#mymisd
I’m so glad we have progressed to the idea of interacting with and writing in our books, posters, & tables, & using a creation/product learning style. Research can be so exciting! #vegaelem
When a student raises their hand and you walk over to them, watch, and they will usually look into your eyes and check your facial expression. When they see a smile, you’ll see them relax and positive things will happen. Try it! #vegaelem#vegaliveskind#misdliveskind
Great and simple article. (I recommend adding a ‘please’ to this) Are we a 100% role model to how we expect students to interact with others? #vegaelem#mymisd https://t.co/NYHBuhS06l
Student is home with the flu but asked to FaceTime presentation partners so they could keep working together. So proud of their initiative and ingenuity 🤗 #vegaelem#mckinneyiea#mymisd#goalbadge
Went on our first Google Expedition to the moon! Thanks to BYOD & a few school iPads- total cost $0. Next stop: Learn about canyons, sedimentary layers, and w.e.d. by visiting the Grand Canyon in 2 weeks. #vegaelem#mckinneyiea
