Today we encourage you to examine the impact your decisions have on the world around you. We will explore Ms. Roger's Smithsonian Learning Lab collection https://t.co/kTZwmUqMYP on the NAACP and brainstorm decisions we make and the outcome on our community. @eroteaches #CCTatHome

In the week ahead, we’ll use #FCPSSTEAM and #CSinFCPS to engineer a time capsule and explore how small changes have big impacts. More activities pictured here are connected to packets mailed home https://t.co/A4CDC8R0hq @prc_fcps @FCPSRegion1 @FCPSR2 @FCPSR3 @Region4FCPS @FCPSR5

Your ideas are a valuable primary source of information that you can preserve for the future with a time capsule. Use #FCPSSTEAM to engineer a time capsule from recyclables.#fcpsPOG @FCPS_CTE @prc_fcps @FCPS_LIS @FCPSsocial See pictures of items to include in your time capsule.

Happy Friday! Let's continue to think flexibly, elaborate on ideas, & create original designs. @eroteaches shared her Smithsonian Lab collection about the postal system: https://t.co/2PyedPGjlP Search the lab collection and design a new stamp or badge for Owney! #CCTatHome

Let's mindmap about our experiences distance learning. Use this video to get you started on how to mindmap: https://t.co/VveIRt0ZLh Think about the materials you use, where you choose to do your learning, and when you like to learn. In the morning or afternoon? #CCTatHome

Today we are going to engage in encapsulation using a fun structure. For your encapsulation sentence that you create, each consonant is worth 5 cents and each vowel is worth one cents. Can you create a sentence that is worth only $1.50? Share your sentences @fcpsaap #CCTatHome

Sometimes it helps to think of many solutions to a problem in order to choose the best path. Try the questioning strategy What Would Happen If...? Consider small problems like cleaning a messy room and big ones like keeping people safe at stores/work. Share @fcpsaap #CCTatHome
