Our 3rd-5th grade students got to "Breakout for Summer" through STEAM-based activities that relied on their collaboration and problem-solving skills! Thanks to our amazing STEAM teachers for creating this opportunity for our students! @ForestLakeWsd @kanner_jamie @wantaghschools

STEAM Day 2021– Can you breakout for summer?! @WantaghSchools @schooldaddy21

Important reminder that change takes time -- there is no quick fix! @robertkaplinsky #goodtogreat

Watch him give the wrong answer and then work his way to 42. I find that giving students time to work out their own reasoning is so valuable. Take a look. https://t.co/wD4h0ArUnp

Important words to remember: "Take care of each other, and the “stuff” will get done. But if we worry too much about the “stuff,” we are going to lose one another." -- George Couros @gcouros

A great way to teach goal setting. #Edchat #Teachertwitter #K12

Collaboration and #mathtalk are so important! Kids learning from one another and explaining their thinking is the best! #elemmathchat

[Scott Jackson @schooldaddy21]

A4 - if we want kids to be successful answering word problems, we have to give them LOTS of opportunities to practice! #elemmathchat

[Scott Jackson @schooldaddy21]

@i_teach_3rd I think by keeping the question you are going to still have students who are just trying to solve. Not having the question makes them focus on the “story” and the quantities

[Scott Jackson @schooldaddy21]

We have been using numberless word problems and the 3 Reads method to get kids thinking and not just doing something with numbers #elemmathchat

[Scott Jackson @schooldaddy21]

I like using four different operational examples using the word “total” to help students see that they need to understand the context, not just a key word #elemmathchat

[Scott Jackson @schooldaddy21]

@i_teach_3rd Taking out the question really helps students to think about the quantities and what could be asked. Plus kids generate some really good questions with practice

Was so lucky to share the book "Stuck" by @OliverJeffers with @MrsAJMorgan's class for #WorldReadAloudDay! Thanks @RyanAliperti for arranging this awesome day!

[Angela Morgan @MrsAJMorgan]

We are loving #WorldReadAloudDay

@MrsAJMorgan has found another great way to engage her students with #mathtalks utilizing @peardeck! Love it!

Leveling up our Math Talks with @PearDeck! We are justifying which shape doesn’t belong using area, perimeter and other creative mathematical reasoning! 🍐 🗣🧮

So proud of our @wantaghschools @mandalayel @forestlakewsd students who used engineering and creativity to create these amazing snowmen as part of our Family STEAM Challenge! Thanks @kanner_jamie for helping to organize this!

[Jamie Kanner @kanner_jamie]

Last month, families participated in the Family STEAM Challenge and designed snowmen. Then, students showcased their creativity by displaying their festive snowmen in the lobby! @WantaghSchools @MandalayEl @ForestLakeWsd @schooldaddy21

Love seeing our young scientists at work! @MrsAJMorgan @MandalayEl

[Angela Morgan @MrsAJMorgan]

💡We’re so bright!💡
We brainstormed, drafted and tested our hypotheses on how to create a series circuit.

Love when #STEAM and literacy are integrated together so seamlessly! Keep up the awesome work @WantaghSTEAM

[Kaitlin Humphrey @WantaghSTEAM]

While reading The Wild Robot by Peter Brown we created our own paper Rozzum robots. Can’t wait to see what problems our robots get into as we follow along in the story! Hopefully we can engineer some solutions! @WantaghSchools @wantaghel

[Scott Jackson @schooldaddy21]

Love seeing 1st graders coding! @Ozobot @kanner_jamie @wantaghschools

[Jamie Kanner @kanner_jamie]

This morning, coders from Mrs. Berman’s class tested out Ozobots. Their goal was to create a path to get my bitmoji to school. Then they experimented with different lines and shapes. Love the excitement when their codes worked! @MandalayEl @WantaghSchools

@ArielAdrian If they could pick any number to represent themselves, what number would they pick and why?

If they could pick any time in history to go back to, when/where would they choose to go and why?

If they could morph into any animal, what animal would they choose and why?
