The new Hour of Code app Music Lab is a big hit with my 8th graders. I think this is our tenth year participating in this exciting event. Thanks @codeorg @StecchiniM @AntrimSchool @ptbeachsuper

This maker finished his marble maze and set out to create a cardboard version of himself. Do you think he succeeded?

We trained an AI model to recognize different poses. We also spent some time discussing how this could be beneficial to society. @ptbeachsuper @StecchiniM @AntrimSchool @kimhoffmanteach

Another group of readers think that our new library furniture is a great place to curl up with a book. @AntrimSchool @StecchiniM @ptbeachsuper

We created a light alarm with our Microbits. The students were amazed to learn that in addition to putting out light, leds can also measure the amount of light going into them. We used the display as a type of light sensor. @StecchiniM @AntrimSchool @ptbeachsuper

According to the students our new furniture makes a great place for reading a good book. @CoachZaccone @AntrimSchool @StecchiniM @ptbeachsuper

Some new furniture was added to our library today. By the reaction of the first class to try it out I think it will be a big hit. @AntrimSchool @StecchiniM @ptbeachsuper

My Fourth grade students love looking at the old yearbooks, they find the best stuff hidden Withings the covers. @StecchiniM @AntrimSchool @ptbeachsuper @kimhoffmanteach

We programmed the schoolyard game ‘Rock Paper Scissors’ yesterday. Our challenge for the day was to modify the game to mimic the Big Bang Theory’s ‘Rock Paper Scissors Lizard Spock’ version of this classic. @StecchiniM @AntrimSchool @ptbeachsuper @bigbangtheory

Today we replicated the classic Magic 8-ball experience with our Microbits. I don’t have to consult the oracle to know that they enjoyed the programming challenges. @ptbeachsuper @StecchiniM @AntrimSchool @Mattel

My students were looking through the old yearbooks I have in the library and one found her Dad👀 @cwilsonPPBHS @AntrimSchool @StecchiniM @ptbeachsuper

We made solar powered bug bots in Maker Club today! 🌝🪲🤖 @StecchiniM @AntrimSchool @ptbeachsuper @cwilsonPPBHS

We trained an AI to recognize different images and had the Microbit give a response based on what was detected. We had way more fun with the traffic cones than I thought we would😂 @StecchiniM @AntrimSchool @ptbeachsuper @kimhoffmanteach
