Their faces! And the joy of the “wolf”!🤣🤣🤣🐺
After reading The Three Little Pigs, our students became architects and engineers! 🐷🏠 They designed and built houses using recyclables, glass, and brick, then put them to the test when the Big Bad Wolf came to visit! 🌬️🧱 STEM in action @CanyonSpringsDV @DVUSD
Wow! Do you have a kid 8-14 years old? Afoma is providing free book matching so you can give wonderful book gifts this holiday!

Shamelessly resharing at a more user-friendly time to maximize views.
Kthxbye

Calling all #kidlit friends! I #amwriting my first ever #GN (author-only, for obvious reasons) and would LOVE to find a CP or CG. It can be a single swap, an ongoing partnership...whatever works for you! Help?!
Please and thank you. 🙏

Have you ever heard someone say, “#STEM levels the playing field!”?
I share how I experienced this in my classroom in my newest newsletter.
I also share a FREE lesson slide deck, a nod to @ekuwah, and several amazing, new #InfoFic and #NF #PictureBooks!

I hope all MG cover designers have subscribed to Afoma’s newsletter! Such interesting insight when she posts on first impressions on covers by ACTUAL KIDS!

PA Teachers/Educators/Authors - I’ll be at The Keystone State Literacy Association Conference next week. Come see me! I'll have "No School, My Rules!" and "Tall as the Sun" on hand. #education #educators #Teachers #PA #pennsylvania #KSLA
Took my favorite little scientist to one of my favorite places today—The NC Museum of Natural Sciences @NaturalSciences!
It was magical seeing it through her eyes!😍
Her face when she saw a spotted salamander!🥰 IYKYK
Did I mention how over-the-moon excited I am that these beautiful books are my prize from this year’s #KidLitChuckleChallenge?
They will definitely be featured in an upcoming #AlwaysWonder #STEM PB blog post!😍
Thank you so much Abi!

Best news I’ve seen all week! So excited that FlyCode will allow educators to keep those Tellos soaring and Legends legending!🙌🏼
FlyCode has become something bigger than we imagined. We built it to keep Tello drones flying. Now you can fly, code, simulate missions, capture media, and even calibrate your Tello in one app.
And it’s free. We’re keeping Tello flying and coding.

Looking for elementary classrooms to #MysterySkype with on Oct. 28! I haven’t done it for quite a few years - tell me where else to connect with people? #elem #tech #geography
After bingeing 4 episodes of Little House on the Prairie (which she fell in love with @AnnetteWhipple!), this was the #STEM activity of choice today!😍
(In blinged-out crocs, no less!)

Fascinating discussion about the current reading situation for boys! I love that Afoma supports her thoughts with data from her MG reading clubs. 🔥

Fall has arrived in the Las Vegas desert, & our school orchard is the next engineering inspiration!
From figs and pomegranates to peaches, apples & more, what’s growing on our playground is driving our next cardboard design challenge.
🌱 We engineer from what’s around us.
How appropriate! A stinkbug on my Packers flag. 🤣😬
Hope it goes away along with the way we’ve been playing so far this season!
