7th graders in Automation & Robotics are getting their Pull Toy mechanisms projects ready to record - some amazing creativity on display as students use green/blue screens, video lights, and creative storytelling to show their work.

What do we do in the Lab when a planned power outage takes effect? Use Ozobots, explore music software on the iPads, build origami by flashlight, and read in the window seat.

5th grade iPad stand prototypes are taking shape! This is an exciting new engineering project that 5th graders have enthusiastically jumped into, exploring new tools, new ways of prototyping, and using design thinking to consider human needs.

The final project for 7th/8th grade Computer Science for Innovators & Makers includes a digital fabrication component. This student design used the Cricut Maker to cut this shape out of felt; it will now get RGB LEDs added to the front.

Huge thanks to today’s special guest xinniw, who demonstrated live coding in Hydra for our computer science class! He played some of his original music and stayed through the class helping students. Menlo Innovations thank you for supporting David and his music!

My office hours are in the pinned tweet but I am happy to meet virtually with any student or family any day, just email me. Additionally, I have started hosting other informal meetups for students on Google Meet. I will send those out over SeeSaw. Those have been fun!

Is there a word that describes that intuitively good feeling one feels when walking into a joyful classroom? More examples this week of the kind of #makercentered learning that just can't happen through a screen - A2 STEAM Lab with Sarah Van Loo. It's great to be back A2STEAM!
