Another great example of a quick sketch and (paper) prototype from one of our Cardboard Carnival Teams in #hawksmakerspace. Super simple prototype build. Doesn't have to be fancy, just show what it will look like. Love it!

Broken BeeBots? 🐝🤖⚙️🪛 No problem! Time to have 4th graders reverse engineer and document with @Seesaw What do you notice? What do you wonder? Can you reassemble your 🤖correctly? 😂

So proud of this team and their dedication to research embedded within the Engineering Design Process. #STEM @PADeptofEd @DiscoverEorg @WarwickPR #FutureCity

The kids from Warwick Middle School, Pennsylvania blew me away with their winning model of a future Sydney incl clean energy, water and transport: 3-time winners of the international Future City STEM comp, well deserved. Maybe we can persuade them to take on Brisbane next?

Something special arrived today! I feel like it’s Christmas morning! Can’t wait to use these @kinazium mats with our 🤖. So many possibilities! #create #FETC #STEM @Sphero

One lucky group of 4th grade #coders were given the opportunity to beta test an exciting new feature in @kodable today. They were super psyched to build and debug their own games and offer feedback to the “actual company! This is the best day ever!” @MCDoeRun @PADeptofEd

How many letters can your alphabet tree hold? How does the height and width of your tree trunk affect its stability? Great ELA connection for our Kinders this week! #STEM @MCDoeRun @ManheimCentral #STEMinPA

How can you tap into children's innate curiosity and sense of adventure? Watch how this school took on the challenge, transforming a boring old hallway into an ever-changing destination for tinkering and exploration! 🔎

Fourth graders have been busy learning about natural resources and the #powerofsolar @iteea #EbDTEEMS. Solar oven plans and creations are underway. 8 ovens per class, 6 classes, that’s 48 solar ovens total! Oh boy! @ManheimCentral @STEMatIU13 @PADeptofEd

[Amy Carter @STEMCarter]

@Cropperl03 @ManheimCentral @BaronElementary @PADeptofEd @carlyandadam First group of fourth graders started their ovens today! Looking good! ☀️🧑‍🍳🍫😎

This week third grade students have been using @Ozobot to explore our solar system. Students have worked together to show the order of the planets in our solar system and how they orbit around the sun. #Clear4Takeoff #ozobot #STEM #solarsystem

Definition of #perservance! The whole class was invested in their success.🥰#STEM @Dodge_WCSD

Budding #structuralengineers researched different types of bridges and then designed their own. How many coins can you fit on your bridge before it collapses? @carlyandadam @MCDoeRun #STEM

@kcollazo @TerrapinBots I immediately googled it and was just about to send this link to my STEM partner @Cropperl03

[Amy Carter @STEMCarter]

@kcollazo @TerrapinBots What?!?!! YES!!

[Amy Carter @STEMCarter]

@kcollazo @TerrapinBots 4 of my 12 BeeBots don’t work anymore so I bought 8 Code and Go Mice as another option but these look rougher and tougher (and we both know the littles need bots that will last!) Adding these to my wish list now!
