An Orbot soccer game to start the day! I’m learning just how competitive this group is 🤣 #InventionProject @IrvingISD @GiftedAAIrving

Mimicking Jupiter’s moon Europa and its ice volcanoes! The first week of Invention Project is in the books and we are looking forward to robots next week 🤖 @IrvingISD @GiftedAAIrving

Pink Out Day 2023 🩷 Today we remember, honor, and support those who have been impacted by breast cancer. I wish I had more pictures to share, but I have LOVED seeing everyone in pink today! @Austin_Broncos

@CutlerScience @Austin_Broncos You can choose graphic organizers, insert PDFs, and more! It’s better than Doceri because once you write on it, the writing stays together. So you can move the document up and down and your writing is still there. Once you play around, I can show you more on 10.3 if you want?!

My handwriting might not be as neat this way, but I’m loving Microsoft Whiteboard! I can easily show my GT kids how to build a nucleus while color coding everything as we go! 😍 @Austin_Broncos #IISDReimagined

[Jordan Holmes @MsHolmes_AMS]

@CutlerScience @Austin_Broncos Yes! It’s an app called “Microsoft Whiteboard” and it was already on my computer. Then I use it kind of like an easel (while mildly panicking that I’ll break my computer from bending it 🤣) It’s nice since my computer is already linked to my TV and I don’t have to switch devices!

I might not have attended Wichita State University, but I still have hometown pride! 🌾 #IrvingGoesToCollege

Density column with my GT kids today! I always love this demo 😍 @Austin_Broncos

Final day of the GT Invention Project! Students were able to create something that didn’t exist yet, but should. I seriously love the Invention Project every year! The student’s creativity always amazes me 🤩 see y’all next year! @IrvingISD @GiftedAAIrving

Day 10 of the GT Invention Project - bots! Students were able to build their own remote controlled bots! 🤖 One more day left of the Invention Project! @IrvingISD @GiftedAAIrving #IISDReimagined

[Jordan Holmes @MsHolmes_AMS]

Day 9 of the GT Invention Project - drones! Students created drone prototypes that could also benefit wildlife. Tomorrow is all about the bots and I am SO ready for it! 🤖 @IrvingISD @GiftedAAIrving #IISDReimagined

[Jordan Holmes @MsHolmes_AMS]

Day 7 of the GT Invention Project - “3D printing”! Students were asked to either make something from the cards provided or make something from a current need in the world! I’m always so impressed with what the students create 😍 @IrvingISD @GiftedAAIrving #IISDReimagined

[Jordan Holmes @MsHolmes_AMS]

Day 6 of the GT Invention Project - the ultimate prank kit! Students crafted the perfect packaging for their prank kits and learned about business models used in the real world! @IrvingISD @GiftedAAIrving #IISDReimagined

[Jordan Holmes @MsHolmes_AMS]

Day 5 of the GT Invention Project (late post) - mechanical sculptures! Students picked a business or location and made a mechanical sculpture for it! @IrvingISD @GiftedAAIrving #IISDReimagined

Day 4 of the GT Invention Project - lab day! This science teacher was super thrilled to conduct some lab experiments with the students! Snow, floating golf balls, and BioSlime 😍 We had a great first week! @IrvingISD @GiftedAAIrving
