We started our molecules and states of matter stop motion videos today. So far, so good :0) #STEAM #StopMotion @SVViperPride

Today I will contend we are not losing teachers bc of the salary, we are losing them because they are not allowed to be free. The number one thing that teachers want to do is……..TEACH. Paperwork, climate, and over-site is killing their profession.

@MrsJenniferByrd When you embed a YouTube video in Canvas or a Google Doc, it removes all adds and just shows the video only.

@SVViperPride @DVUSD @schubert_shelly Congratulations!🎉

[Marie Cherie @mariecherie9855]

You MUST stop everything and do this now! Thanks Amanda for sharing!

[The Math Learning Center @MLCmath]

Schools may be closed, but math learning can continue! We have put together free resources for all students to use independently or with support from family members or educators.

6th Ss @SVViperPride thinking like biologists today and developing questions about whether or not to reintroduce the grey wolf Inyo an established ecosystem. #criticalthinking @DVUSD

Design is important. “One size for all” is a frowned upon practice for teaching Ss, yet it is often the norm for PD.

[Rich Czyz @RACzyz]

A3: Engagement comes through ensuring PD is relevant to educators, embedded in what they do, and designed to provide VOICE/CHOICE! #satchat #4OCF

Got to share a Chuckwalla with the Ss on the bus as we went from Biosphere 2 to Pima Air & Space Museum.@DVUSD @SVViperPride

[Jeff Lyons @jtlyons506]

6th Ss @SVViperPride went to Biosphere 2 today! Awesome! @DVUSD #STEMeducation

[Jeff Lyons @jtlyons506]

6th Ss @SVViperPride were challenged to program their drones to take off from a 1.5x1.5 square and land in one 8ft away. Lots of trial and error engineering! @DVUSD #STEMeducation @ParrotEducation

Shifting assessment practices away from “Do you know ____?” and moving towards “”What do you know?”

[Jeff Lyons @jtlyons506]

Love this idea. #StudentVoice #Kidsdeserveit @DVUSD

Thought provoking article to read on MLK Day.

[NPR @NPR]

"We actually celebrate the architects and defenders of enslavement," says the author of the memoir "Just Mercy." "For me, that has to change if we're going to get to the kind of healthy place I think we need to get to."

@JoeCFeldman @NSBAPublicEd @JoeCFeldman, what is your experience of using a 0-4 system of grading in a district that is still built on a 0-100 scale for reporting?

[Jeff Lyons @jtlyons506]

6th Ss @SVViperPride learned programming basics with drones today. Cute video of them pretending to control the drone using the “Force” (iPad). @DVUSD #DroneEd @gotynker @ParrotEducation

[Jeff Lyons @jtlyons506]

SV 6th Ss @SVViperPride collected temp data on earth materials today. Tomorrow we analyze and graph. #RealScience @DVUSD
