Started a new World History project with JT Stocker. 3D models of ancient monuments built from cardboard and craft materials on a 1:200 scale. Fascinating to see the students work through the process. #Innovate #STEMacrossthecurriculum Powhatan Middle

Introducing a group of 6th graders to BirdBrain Technologies #hummingbirdkit as they design robots to solve student identified problems. Always exciting to watch them collaborate and teach themselves and each other! #innovate #STEMacrossthecurriculum Powhatan Middle

Got to work with the whole 6th grade (>300 lovely students and their English teachers) creating X-games events for their unit on figurative language. See the swooshing skis slide swiftly down the snowy slope! #alliteration Becky Brown, NBCT Powhatan Middle

I received a few free samples from Teachergeek and loved them enough to buy some sets for my lab. This week, we tried out their #RubberBandRacers to help review forces, motion, energy, and experimental design. These 8th graders had a great time innovating! Powhatan Middle

Working with a fabulous group of elementary teachers this week as we explore ways to integrate STEM in their curriculum! Brown Dog Gadgets sent free samples, and the teachers made #SolarBugs, designed adaptations for them, and created triorama habitats to showcase their designs.

Thankfully the wildfire haze cleared enough to let ๐ŸŒž through for our solar cars! What a great week of STEM with these fantastic elementary teachers.

Super excited about the new tools and techniques I'm learning about with chibitronics & Infosys Foundation USA to inspire even more STEM creativity in our students Powhatan Middle! For my weekend homework, I made an animated storyline for The Watsons Go To Birmingham. Hey, Cindy Winston!
