Practicing the games in our Spring Break packet after testing for the win! Odd Pig Out and Nim 1 -2. Every kid went home with two 10 sided dice and the directions in English and Spanish. Games over worksheets! @MathforLove @JennSallas @MickeyBanek @KECELEMENTARY

This week's STEM activity Ss learned about the important role stilt roots have in plant survival . Thanks to the Empower STEM Grant, a group of teachers from @GladesRegion were able to come watch STEM in action. My Ss rocked it! @CrissyTab @JZ_Science @PBCSDSTEM @KECELEMENTARY

Today we did our first Escape Room activity. So many successfully escaped! Woot! Love the smiles! Plus the first 5 done had time to learn to play Prime Climb! Yippee! @JennSallas @MathforLove @MickeyBanek @TeachLearnMeg @ChristineLPercy @drhib1982 @KECELEMENTARY

KEC 3rd Gr Ss working together to build their prototype of a bridge. Gum drops and tooth picks are the building materials. Great cooperation today. We are engineers We can do hard things! @PBCSDSTEM @CrissyTab @DrMcTierEDU @GladesRegion @drhib1982 @RobertTutoni @PBCSDScience

3rd grade Ss practicing rotation routines and reviewing 2nd grade standards! 15 Supreme, Penny, Nickel, Dime, and Build a Triangle Challenge. Loving the math games and the engagement! @AltoriaHenley @TeachLearnMeg @MickeyBanek @nomathhaters @ChristineLPercy @MathforLove

We are out..another successful summer school in the books! These dedicated and passionate educators showed up this summer to support our students that needed them ❤️They are the true rockstars! @MrsGreen1997 @liljenedu @pbcsd

What a great ending to an awesome summer! So much fun!

Last week of Rise Summer School and we went off piste. Flashlight circuits, non-newtonian solid oobleck, and chemical change using alka-seltzer rockets. What a great week! Science is fun! Learning by doing! @RisaSuarez @CrissyTab @RobertTutoni @CollinsScruggs @pbscience4u

😭😭😭😭 Yesterday was our last day with Prime Climb. To say my students LOVED this game is not stating it strongly enough! I loved hearing them challenging each other, developing strategies, and confidence. @MickeyBanek @TeachLearnMeg @nomathhaters @RisaSuarez @ChristineLPercy

Treating our rock star summer school staff at RPBE to a little appreciation treat !

Another day of learning for our Rising Ss. Don't Break the Bank fraction version, Prime Climb, and testing for heat transfer. @RisaSuarez @CrissyTab @MickeyBanek @nomathhaters @ChristineLPercy @RobertTutoni @pbscience4u Best summer EVER!!! @math4love

The best part is listening to Ss gain their voice and confidence. We have come a long way since week one in willingness to talk to each other!

More Ss investigating our minerals.

Ss investigating minerals properties by doing a streak test and testing for magnetism. A lot of aha moments. Talc was soft, lodestone with iron filings sticking out, calcite, pyrite, and quartz. @RisaSuarez @CrissyTab @RobertTutoni

Dance Party! Today's opening math challenge make 21 with a calculator missing the 0, 1 ,and 2 keys. Ss shared their equations with each other after moving around the room music. We had visitors who joined right in! @risasuarez @nomathhaters @MickeyBanek @TeachLearnMeg

Investigating matter's properties without power today. Good thing the glaciers were last week! Lol! My really good slide presentation was useless, but the activities went smoothly even without power! @RisaSuarez @CrissyTab @RobertTutoni @nomathhaters @JenJonesPBC

What do you do when you loss power in the middle of your math lesson? Why play Prime Climb of course. No tech needed! Three groups, two emergency lights, one winner per group! 9 happy kids! Priceless! @MickeyBanek @nomathhaters @ChristineLPercy @TeachLearnMeg @RisaSuarez

I have the BEST job ever! Today, we learned about seed dispersal, and it was an explosive, messy lesson, but I doubt very much they will forget about how some plant's seeds disperse! Plus math games, too! @RisaSuarez @nomathhaters @TeachLearnMeg @RobertTutoni @MickeyBanek

All 14 seniors from Pahokee Middle-Senior High’s Rocket-Powered Robotics and Stepping Up S.T.E.M. program have graduated and are college-bound! These students include the students who formed the original 6th-grade robotics class at Pahokee Middle School. Congratulations!

I LOVE this program! Rising Stars 5 at Royal Palm Beach ES is the place to be! I am loving the hands on approach that to math and science instruction! @RisaSuarez @nomathhaters @CrissyTab @TeachLearnMeg @MickeyBanek @pbscience4u @RobertTutoni
