In March, 7 students came to school on a Sat for Conundrum Day to make Bluebird Nesting Boxes. One excited student just sent me this, “When I open the birdhouse...We’re gonna have some baby bluebirds!!!!!” Making connections, pic of his female, pic of clutch in my box.
@Sci_Rem@PennCapitalStar Subs want more pay to teach during pandemic? What about hazard pay for teachers? Our Teachers had pay raises taken away & do not have safe measures for F2F instruction. Will not have enough subs/bus drivers/safety precautions taken. I.e. No cleaning classrooms between changes.
This absolutely warmed my heart & put a smile on my face! 8 of my students joined Zoom meeting this morn & decided to meet weekly. Just checking in, sharing, & they asked for more home challenges. Pic of fort challenge this week. Baking challenge for next Week. #missmystudents
We have been working on a 1950’s Cold War unit & students brainstormed how the corona virus may have spread and been addressed, then vs now. Each class, students want to start with updates, news, concerns, and a discussion of the CV-19. Running out of room. Knowledge is power.
Enjoying collaborating with @ktalley75 on “Shakespeare Set In Another Time”. Rewriting Act 3 Scene 2 in the mobsters, modern, gangsters, hippies, and 50’s eras.
“Contain, not Contaminate” lesson for @jpneuf 6th grade math classes. Thanks for the opportunity to lead your classes in this PBL! Styrofoam vs Environment? Stay tuned to see if students choose to save the planet or make more profit. @GMSPotter @pbgordon_GMS

Robotics is an academically challenging sport! These kids put countless hours into programming, research, presentations &team building skills. Robotics deserves more recognition for preparing students for LIFE. And, after 8 hrs of competing, they still have this much energy!
