Shout out to @suituptoteach for not only doing amazing things with his students and school community in this challenging time, but also going out of his way to encourage and uplift my students! @PLCSchools is lucky to have you! #PLCSgreat

My mini-me spent his day using a 3-D printer to make a medical mask for his high risk Uncle who is at home waiting for a heart transplant and he is printing more to donate. He makes my heart smile everyday! @CharlesRandolp3

When in doubt- READ. Read to your kids, let them read to you, read inside, read outside, build a fort and read, read the cereal boxes, read with flashlights, ask questions about the words, ask questions about the characters, ask questions about their thoughts... #BetterTogether

An Italian hospital ran out of ICU valves. A local biz brought a 3D printer to the hospital, redesigned & produced the valves in a few hours.

“At the time of writing, 10 patients are accompanied in breathing by a machine that uses a 3D printed valve.”

Using this social distancing sort of spring break to finally complete my @Seesaw Ambassador cert! Thanks for the encouragement @c8lin17!

What an amazing opportunity for our 5th and 6th graders!

[Kristin Rock @ROCKinEDU]

@PLVSchoolsFound We’re grateful! The kids have done some amazing problem solving and creating with it already! We would love to have you come try it out anytime ❤️

The anchors at @WOWT6News tried out Carriage Hill Elementary's school-wide handshake on TV! The students competed earlier this week for their handshake to be the official school handshake and the winning team got to make a how-to video to teach the rest of the school. #PLCSGreat

Diving into podcasting in @ROCKinEDU @Carriage_Hill 6th grade classroom. Day 1: becoming critical consumers to provide inspiration for creativity (❤️ this concept from @spencerideas) by using a @padlet of podcasts to explore great examples. @teresa_casart @PLCSchools #PLCSgreat

We’re the LUCKIEST to have the support of @21centtech & @gschwanke18 as we launch this adventure! You guys have been rockstars! @PLVSchoolsFound - we’re grateful you’ve made this happen!

[Caitlin Nelson @c8lin17]

Huge thank you @21centtech from @ESU3 for visiting @ROCKinEDU classroom today to support our next steps in 3D printing. We learned so much! @PLCSchools #plcsgreat #plcsinnovates

[Kristin Rock @ROCKinEDU]

Thank you for coordinating @suituptoteach! We loved it! What a great way to review 😊

#PLCSGreat Mr. Dennis came out of retirement to help @Carriage_Hill @ROCKinEDU 6th graders create a filament holder for 3D printer. Real, authentic, empowering learning experience for these kiddos to actually get to build their design. Amazing final product! @PLCSchools

[Kristin Rock @ROCKinEDU]

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[Caitlin Nelson @c8lin17]

Design thinking project to build a filament holder for @ROCKinEDU new 3D printer. We hope to build one of the kid’s designs out of PVC pipe. If you know any talented individuals who can create one of these designs, let me know. @PLVSchoolsFound #PLCSinnovates #PLCSgreat

This is my fav thing about teaching the oldest grade in the school ❤️ So much time to build relationships with ALL kids before they’re ever my Ss. It’s the best feeling to have a S on my roster who KNOWS I’ve got their back and love them, even before the first day of school.

[Kristin Rock @ROCKinEDU]

@Ms_Leonovicz You’re so wonderful at modeling a growth mindset for your students! They’re lucky to have such a dedicated teacher ❤️

[Kristin Rock @ROCKinEDU]

@jennie1023 @c8lin17 @PLVSchoolsFound Yes, amazing idea!! Can’t wait to learn from them!

[Kristin Rock @ROCKinEDU]

Can we change this to “STUDENT Grant Recipients”?! SO PROUD of my 6th grade leaders who came up with the idea of a 3D printer, did the research, and helped write the grant! Thank you @c8lin17 for the encouragement ❤️. And a BIG thank you to @PLVSchoolsFound! #PLCSInnovates
