Having a blast with the #BirdEngineeringWeekChallenge2024 at Matoaca ES!

Our Bottle buddies are almost finished! ❤️ #oneccps #MaeSTEAM Matoaca Elementary

3rd graders created their own unique animals complete with specific adaptations. I asked them why the mermaid resembled their steam teacher 🤔 #oneccps #MaeSTEAM

Nothing is cuter than kinders exploring how shadows are made! ❤️ #oneccps #MaeSTEAM

#MaeSTEAM with first grade! #feelthevibrations ❤️🤣

We are about a month behind celebrating hour of code, but my 1st grade friends loved partnering and coding on our iPads! The touch screen was really helpful for their tiny hands!!!

POV - On the floor taking a picture bc 'Mrs. Doyle, you have to see this!' Y'all ever wonder why STEAM teachers don't dress up much for work? #MaeSTEAM

They understood the assignment. Use paper place value blocks to create a math monster. Try making part of the design 3D with flat paper. Find the value of your creature and represent it in multiple ways. #MaeSTEAM #STEMeducation #elementarysteam

Wacky hair for spirit week last week!

Phases of the moon with ozobot! #ozobot #STEMeducation Matoaca Elementary

Trying out a new challenge I call 'creepy creatures.' These 3rd graders crushed it! They had to create something from paper base 10 blocks. We are going to find the value next week. I'm trying to find a fun way to support teaching addition and subtraction in 3rd grade.

Motivation Monday 🦖

Ready to celebrate international dot day on Friday! We are celebrating all week in STEAM!

I've started adding signs in the STEAM lab of some of my common phrases so I can refer to them regularly....what do you say all the time? #heresyoursign #steameducation
