All set for coding with @microbit_edu on Monday! I am grateful that the @DuPageROE funded a grant to put supplies in both my remote and in person learner’s hands!

So happy we had a sunny day so we could test out our spinners and solar panels outside. @CCSD66

Last day of in person learning for 2020, so we had to try an engineering challenge. @CCSD66

Lesson planning for effective remote learning takes more time than for live classes

Lesson planning to do both live and remote teaching effectively simultaneously takes more time than for remote learning

@CCSD66 teachers are working hard for everyone #LearningForAll #R2L

I am so proud of my fellow teachers for stepping out of their comfort zones to find new ways to connect with their students while learning at home.

I had no idea you could use @makeymakey with the iPad! That’s amazing!! Thank you for sharing!

@mrsd4s Thanks for capturing my Ss at work!

[Joy DeFors @MrsD4s]

@Myersstem tasked her Ss to deliver candy canes to classrooms via #drones today in #STEM with. Mr. Windsor even got in on the fun! #ccsd66 #STEMeducation @gotynker @parroteducation

[Erika Myers @Myersstem]

@iTeacher5th @Parrot @gotynker You can set up each drone in classroom mode. We named them using the free flight app to make it easy to find the drone we wanted.

Spartans are getting started with the engineering design process. I love flexibility in the new furniture in the STEM lab! @CCSD66

Here's an amazing story and why I love my job... A few weeks ago, I saw a teacher tweet a video of a Tetris game a student named Spencer made on @codeorg.

[MIT CSAIL @MIT_CSAIL]

3 years ago MIT grad student Katie Bouman led the creation of a new algorithm to produce the first-ever image of a black hole.

Today, that image was released.

It is so cool to see some of my student's faces in this photo! I wish I was with them and I can't wait to hear about their day tomorrow! #ccsd66 #IGED2019

[Argonne National Lab @argonne]

Welcome to #IGED2019 at Argonne. Today we pair Argonne scientists with teenage girls to let them test drive a #STEM career

[CCEAofficial @AofficialCce]

Kudos to @argonne national lab for hosting “Introduce a Girl to Engineering”! A lot of Lakeview students are excited to attend #STEM @CCSD66 @Myersstem

Happy Friday! You have to love when a student uses @microbit_edu to program NeoPixel lights for a crab rave. #ccsd66 #microbit

Don’t wait for your district to offer a training. Don’t wait for your school to “develop” you.

You’re a talented professional and can take ownership of your learning.

Take full advantage of what your school offers, but be a continuous learner.

Own your learning.
