@heisereads @kmoorebooks @bottomshelfbks @inkyelbows @artsylliu @kaokaliayang @AndreaYWang @authorjasonchin @pacylin @LindaSuePark @KatZhang Thank you for this list! Since libraries and most bookstores are closed will look for YouTube reading alouds of these books... any authors want to read them to us while we are all cuddled up with our little ones?

@mrsediem @Seesaw @E_Cobb18 You are awesome!!!

Does gravity affect heat transfer? My fifth graders are curious to see what happens when they run their experiment ON THE ISS!! Results from Earth Blueline=black sensor, redline=white sensor. Any guesses what will happen? #questforspace @Kelly_Cougars @KellyThinkTank #cusdlearns

@suptchurchill @CarlsbadUSD @Kelly_Cougars @CarlsbadLancers This is the best of the best right here!!

@janascott43 @MagPrincipal This is so powerful!! Love this.

@TobiaBrooke @chmscoyotes @PrincipalEcker @MsSchuman011 @ginact55 This is amazing. Be the change! So powerful! Can’t wait for my son to be at CHMS next year, and also be part of the change!

Today, 5th graders ran their experiment to determine which color absorbs/cools faster on Earth. Tomorrow, students will run experiment on the International Space Station to compare how gravity may affect heat transfer. #questforspace #cusdlearns @KellyThinkTank @Kelly_Cougars

Contrary to stereotype, middle school girls outperformed boys on the 2018 Technology and Engineering Literacy exam - even though they were less likely to have taken a class in the field ahead of time. #GirlsInSTEM https://t.co/lUiWaHmaKg

@Gameboydrew @MarisaEThompson @DynamicDuda338 @jcorippo @jenquattrucci @annkozma723 @MaureenDano @dailystem @irvspanish @DrKatrinaKeene @Michelle4EDU @cogswell_ben Is this just colored masking tape? Love this idea!!

⁦@Kelly_Cougars⁩ fifth graders are learning to read and write code for their heat transfer experiment here on Earth. ⁦⁦@questforspace⁩, our students cannot wait to run their experiment on the International Space Station!! #cusdlearns #kellyroar #edtech

[Nicole Buchanan @KellyThinkTank]

First graders using OzoBots to learn how to draw code for a line following color-decoding Bot. Pure joy seeing their code work. #kellyroar #cusdlearns #edtech

Fifth graders assembling their QUEST FOR SPACE Arduino kits by adding radiation sensors, fan, and heat source. Next step, programming. ⁦@questforspace⁩ , #cusdlearns, #edtech, #kellyroar

Day 1: Quest for Space with the finest fifth graders around. I got butterflies! ⁦@questforspace⁩ #cusdlearns #kellyroar

@northcountydad I would love to share what we are doing to get our kids thinking and prepare for their future.

[Nicole Buchanan @KellyThinkTank]

This is what you get when you expose all students to programming and robotics during the school day... Inspired third graders that don’t want to stop, not even for recess. #kellyroar #edtech #cusdlearns

[Nicole Buchanan @KellyThinkTank]

Eeekkkkk!!! Look what arrived today!!! Can’t wait to beta test @Questforspace with our @Kelly_Cougars fifth graders! Out of this world EXCITED.

[Nicole Buchanan @KellyThinkTank]

Can you program your Space Rover to travel from Earth to Mars and deliver materials to sustain life? These kids can with help from the Valley Girls 2.0 Robotics Team and Sally Ride UCSD students. Go Kelly Science day. Thank you #CEF

[Nicole Buchanan @KellyThinkTank]

Does the size of rockets fin affect how far they can travel? First graders engineering during Kelly Into Orbit Science Day! Thank you #CEF!!
