Always a blast when I get to work with the coding comets from @HorizonElem. Everyone loved how the @microbit_edu could be used for so many engaging activities.

5th graders got to try out the new micro:bits provided by the CS Dept and loved it! @AlgorithmChef helped us code them to play rock, paper, scissors and train an AI model to tell the difference between physical movements using the micro:bit’s accelerometer. @csforlcps

This activity was so amazing to observe. The amount of thinking that was going on between each group as they were designing and testing their codes was incredible. Students were fully engaged and did not want to stop when the timer went off.

Today at Waxpool Elem, 5th graders took the role of rover programmers and created codes for their @Ozobot to navigate a grid of Mars. Using information from “Mission Command,” Ss had to test their codes and then send them to @NASA for verification. All of the 5Cs were on display!

We had an amazing time with our first Trashion Show on Friday! Thank you to our guest judges, our brave teacher models, our student creators, staff organizers, and everyone who donated recycled items. It was so fun to see our Comets SHINE with this project. 🤩

Today at the Think Big Space, 2nd graders from Evergreen Mill participated in a livestream lesson that was broadcast to 2 other elementary schools across the county! With the help of @AlgorithmChef, they learned how to use Machine Learning w/ AutoDraw to identify mystery animals.

OMG! I love everything about this AND I am going to figure out a way for students to do this for upcoming social science lessons. Thanks for sharing @historysandoval.

Students are creating "Labor Leader Legends" and "Ruthless Robber Barons" Funko Pops using @padlet for AI image creation. Ss download images to add to their Google Doc. They are coming out better than I imagined.

K-5 Ss @HorizonElem celebrated #WorldSpaceWeek by participating in grade level computer science activities. Ss engaged their critical thinking while using @LEGO_Group, @Ozobot, @Sphero, @Kahoot, @PlayCraftLearn, and @TerrapinBots to learn more about outer space. It was a blast!
