Today’s quick #STEMstarter challenge: Give your students 10 dominoes, a ping pong ball, a cup (& whatever else they can find in your room) and challenge them to make a mini @RubeGoldberg Machine!
After dinner math...
Roll the dice. Find the product. Draw ANY rectangle with that product. Keep the Blockus rules of having to share a corner with an area of your color (not an edge). Can't fit a rectangle? Strike. 3 strikes you are out. Biggest total area wins. #mathgames

We finished our Natural Disaster Reports last week. If you teach, you know writing takes FOREVER. We persevered and they came out great! Students did a gallery walk today and were so proud of their work. My teacher heart is happy! #MUSD@BRS_Academy#writing#GRIT

My Donor’s Choose project was funded! Thank you to the wonderful people who donated! Every student received a reusable water bottle. I added their name and our school cub to make it theirs. Students loved them! @BRS_Academy#waterbottles#DonorsChoose#BillGates
Today in class, while discussing the vocabulary word engineer, a student tells me, “I know an engineer! Tony Stark.” My response, “he is the best engineer because he can time travel!” @BRS_Academy#Engineer#TonyStark#Steam#STEM
