Switched from MakerBot software to @Ultimaker I was nervous about how it would perform with our Makerbots. Thrilled to say it’s even better! 🎉 Check out our 4th bag charms inspired by the latest craze! Still loving Labubu, but love their creativity even more! 💖✨

Using Adobe’s Creative Challenge to help my STEM club celebrate their identities. Putting our quilt together to share with the school helps them feel like they belong together in our club. Here’s my digital square! I’ll post more when our quilt is complete! #AdobeEduCreative

Keeping STEM club busy on the last few days by designing keychains with our new @glowforge. Kids were so engaged plus they get a personalized end of the year gift to take home! Two more days to go in NYCPS!

At our final GEG of the year, we had a blast with my Lego challenge breakout! The challenge? Create a minifig that represents you & can hang by your computer camera—perfect for Google Meets. Trust me, it’s trickier than it sounds but so fun! Share pics if you try it on your own!

Wednesday was a @Google-filled day! We explored Gemini with the amazing team of @NerdyBryant, @Techteachernyc, @projectrecess, and @YouthInnovator. It was a collaborative experience that ignited our creativity with AI. We ended the day with this years final GEG! #NYCSchoolsTech

We showed up & gave it our all, but it just wasn’t our day! Congratulations to Brooklyn on their victory! Even though we didn't come out on top, we created memories that will last a lifetime. We were so proud to represent Queens at the NYC Minecraft Battle of the Boroughs.

I still have to collect all my pictures and put something together but thank you to everyone and anyone who helped organize this day for our kids! It was an amazing event!
Moments from the 1st ever NYC Video Game Festival which hosted @NYCSchools 5th year of the @Minecraft Challenge. Some amazing moments, ecstatic families, expanded college/career/partner fair, college esports, drones, movies, & Queen's first champs! @PlayCraftLearn @MicrosoftEDU

3/3 They grew a confidence in themselves that trickled into all other academic areas. This is what esports does for kids! It gives them a purpose, voice and a place to shine! I am so proud to be their coach. Next stop Battle of the Boroughs!

2/3 The Friday before the competition even arranged a practice without me while I was out for a meeting. They persevered through problems, learned how to be cool under pressure & truly became a collaborative powerhouse.

1/3 On Saturday PS24Q’s Team Sigma was crowned Queens Minecraft Battle of the Boroughs Champs! But Esports is more than just competition & awards. For an entire year I watched my kids show up every day. They came to me seeking feedback on how they could get better.
