Secret to getting more engagement…drop an “oh you’re cooking” to one student. They all go nuts and anyone not paying attention is like, wait what’d I miss?!

Not sure which student(s) change the clothespin each day, but I love it!

#Minecraft is so great, even the cat wants to play!

@DeeSTEM_Teach My school did that’s years ago but with all the opening and closing of the drawers for teachers to stock paper and take it back out, we needed more techs out to fix things. Now it’s just always there. As it should be.

So, I started making videos for my students to watch while they have a snack break. I make one video for the week and they watch 5-6 minutes each day. Kinda nerdy, but here's the newest. Minecraft Seed 2024 Infinite Lava Source https://t.co/TytXETko2k

It’s a huge bummer that companies like @Scholastic aren’t letting their books be browsed on https://t.co/TGOiZIesPZ. As a teacher, I use this site to put 📚 in my slideshows so all Ss have eyes on text. Schools don’t have the funding or the space for all Ss to have 📚 in hand.

I made some #BillCipher cookies for my 9 year old’s birthday! And check out the giant poster my husband made! #GravityFalls

@thisone0verhere So I’ve spent entirely too long looking for this tweet and I don’t know if it exists. Someone else screenshot it and posted it. Buuuut, I wanted to thank you for using 2 of our 5th grade vocabulary words. My students appreciated the colorful language.

We started reading groups today in 5th grade. It’s going to be awesome! But, we are looking for our next book after we read I Am Malala and I would love to do this one! Any chance anyone would buy my class a copy?! https://t.co/pDpZZYzxMr #Minecraft

He says thank you for making that video! He’s excited to start learning how to code and he’s saving up for a computer.

@SystemZee My 8 year old wants to know if you have a phd in coding. He says you’re the best at coding mods and he wants to know how to get that good! #minecraft

This is my child. Using a book as a bookmark for another book. 🤦🏼‍♀️

The calming corner for my #Minecraft #classroom is looking pretty good!

[Colleen Gallagher @Robot_Colleen]

I made some #Minecraft skip counting numbers! Each one is a different texture.

[Colleen Gallagher @Robot_Colleen]

As a class, we work to get resources. First 2 days we got oak logs and then made all these things! They loved putting sticks and planks right on the crafting table to make the tools. #Minecraft #classroom #clearthelist https://t.co/pDpZZYzxMr

My #Minecraft class is coming along! I need more chains but they are so tedious to cut out. Can’t wait until students see it tomorrow for Meet the Teacher night!

[Colleen Gallagher @Robot_Colleen]

My #Minecraft #classroom is coming along with these custom tablecloths! Im obsessed!! Any Minecrafters want to help make it even better?! https://t.co/GN7jWBKOz3

[Colleen Gallagher @Robot_Colleen]

@peepsaregood Yes!! Took me til “slice of Swiss cheese” but then I was dying!! So good!

[Colleen Gallagher @Robot_Colleen]

My #Minecraft classroom is going to be amazing with these wood tablecloths!
