How do you get your Project Lead The Way #DM class to go from hyper to hyper engaged? Start with a Gimkit all about Tinkercad! The Humans vs. Zombies element didn't hurt either... #STEM #BMSthePlace2B

"Hey Mr. Yonteff, I'm done with my Project Lead The Way assignment. What should I do?" "I dunno Makenna, how about build #BabyYoda in Tinkercad?" Ask and ye shall receive. Perfect way to celebrate season 2! #STEM #TheMandalorian #BMSthePlace2B

I love Gimkit, but this new Trust No One mode is even more awesome! All my Among Us obsessed Project Lead The Way Ss were heavily engaged and reinforcing their measuring skills. Now we just need to get their debate skills past the "X is sus!" "No I'm not!" point... #BMSthePlace2B

A recently former student got an Atari 2600 for his mother as a b-day gift. Explaining how this works was so alien to him yet so nostalgic to me! #oldtech #lifelonggamer

An email from one of my Project Lead The Way 6th graders today opened with asking how my day was, then continued with "My day has been like an eggshell in your eggs"! Never heard a frustrating day described so well! Good thing he was just angry at a project partner. #BMSthePlace2B

Just got my jab. Quick, easy, and (mostly) painless! No lollipop or sticker though #kidatheart. Thank you to Clinton County HD and all workers for the amazing job you're doing!

Sportball of any kind means extremely little to me in my day to day life, but I love that Google allows you to search for "superb owl" and will give you a relevant result!

Yesterday my daughter brought home more candy and treats than she did for Halloween from her classes "card exchange". Has Valentine's day just become Pink Halloween?

My 6th grade Project Lead The Way Ss really knocked out out if the park designing therapeutic toys for their engineering final. Super proud! #BMSthePlace2B

So excited! Project Lead The Way Ss in 6th starting a project in collaboration w/The Game Studio at Champlain College and CFES Brilliant Pathways. Creating a board game based on a theme learned in any other class. Learning design process, modern game design, and more! #STEAM #BMSthePlace2B

Fun and inspiring day at Beekmantown CSD thanks to Shine On and Mrs. Diana Danville. What an experience for our Ss speaking with NASA astronauts currently on the Int'l Space Station! Kudos to the 8th graders who presented to thousands of other kids! #BMSThePlace2B.

My #computerscience students: "Mr. Y can we talk about Doritos for 5 minutes and time how long it takes for us to get targeted ads on our devices?" Me (thinking of ways to justify it's educational value):

My daughter and I just test built KiwiCo's levitating lantern! The S's at CFES Brilliant Pathways/Beekmantown CSD's STEM camp are going to love it! Learning about circuits and tensegrity in one cool project! #STEM #BMSthePlace2B

Had a great idea for a #PBL project for my Project Lead The Way Ss. Create a treat dispenser for our wonderful therapy dog Laci Mae. Some came out working quite well! Others...didn't survive Laci's curiosity... #BMSthePlace2B Beekmantown CSD

Great day with Beekmantown CSD 6th graders! Took a few to visit Champlain College's Game Studio. Learned all about the various jobs/majors in the video game industry and got to play test student projects. #BMSthePlace2B
