I am at the level in my teaching career where my husband loaded a @Makedo panel from #ISTELive25 into the car without asking any questions. I don’t know if he’s my biggest supporter or enabler. 😏

So much fun with @makeymakey in my middle school computer science class. We had our own arcade going as we tested out everyone’s mazes. #computerscience #WeAreBUSD @EHMSBobcats

Made a tilt game controller! Not very responsive due to several factors. I need to refine this project. @makeymakey @InfyFoundation @gravescolleen
