At first glance this article is about business, on second it is all about teaching. We need to frame feedback in the right light and focus on the success of students, not failures. Cross out how can you improve and put what did you do right? #yorklearns

With the @theyorkschool Pinewood Derby happening next week, there is a lot of painting, dremelling out holes for weights, axle polishing and other car building happening in the Schad Lab #yorklearns #makeredto

[The York School @theyorkschool]

Have you ever launched a water rocket 200 meters into the air?! Our extraordinary Grade 6 students have! They built rockets for design class and watched them blast off into the sky this morning.

#YorkLearns

[Tim Cooper @tcoops]

It's rocket day no 1 @theyorkschool Students have designed nosecones and fins, 3d printed them and assembled them on soda bottles. Water and air pressure propelled their creations to great heights. #yorklearns #makeredto #ultimaker
