With my students asking me what I think of tariffs this week, my daughter reminded me of this scene - I had forgotten it was about tariffs www.youtube.com/watch?v=X_wH...

Same here!🫶🏼

A3: I think we can often be reluctant to create content because we think it may not be good enough. Just make it, and share it, and learn from it. As they say "Done is better than perfect."
#EduSkyChat

Thanks, this is truly magical @tisharichmond.bsky.social! We will totally 💯 use #CanvaEdu ‘Lucky Wheel’ for our 12/12 #HourOfCode dance party!🙏🏼

Hmm??? Possibly @keciamcdonald.bsky.social can help us spread the word in her beautifully written Tuesday newsletters.
Maybe we can share our 🦋handles at future IRL gatherings. Possibly @dagan.education can write a #HSTEsky jingle we can all sing along for holidays. 😂

I got through each of the missions 1) wardrobe 2)choreography 3) music 4) backdrop. I loved the idea of them all yet the Hour of Code was glitchy & took a long time to load. At the very end, after the missions we were seated in front of the stage, like the show was starting, yet nothing happened.😅

No we haven’t used those lessons. During Covid, my students from home,w/ MS team guidance, tried another #MinecraftEdu #HourOfCode and didn’t report any problems, like the ones I had w/ the new dance activity. I was really hoping it would work to include in this year’s bit.ly/hidanceparty #CSceleste

Love this tip, thanks! Cool way to condense our messages & pluralize hashtags!

When the Minecraft Edu “The Show Must Go On” activity had so many glitches, we took the missions 1) costume 2) stage design 3) write song 4) choreography and had our Tink Think Tank use whatever resources they wanted to make it come to life. Here is their products after 40 minutes.

We love Minecraft Edu and 4th grade uses it to show the ahupua’a division of land, as shared long ago by Shane A. & Greg K. This #HourOfCode, I got so excited to see “The Show Must Go On” activity, which was fun but was head dizzying & failed at end. Instead our kids built the dance stage: #EduSky🦋

This is a photo of “Y” arms branching out to a tree of Barbara Bray’s new book “ Grow Your Why”. Tūtū Celeste will be sharing these books with her own role models she got to write about in Chapter 2.

Thanks for growing #EduSky here @eduskyteam.com! Incredible marigolden mentor @bbray27.bsky.social convinced a bunch of us to migrate.👐🏼🦋Many were honored to share in Barbara’s new book, “Grow Your Why.” @liviachan.bsky.social

Celeste’s school is home of the Dolphins with red and yellow school colors. This mahalo “thank you” shows a rainbow of dolphins surrounding a mahalo heart, representing the diversity of my school culture.🫶🏼

Thanks Alice & mahalo for rebuilding our edu community with @eduskyteam.com

Dash robots are still my favorite because they are colorfully engaging & reactive. I can take them with me to different classes & they are tall enough so we don’t have to go hunting underneath cabinets for them.😂

Hmm… I got so excited and really wanted this Minecraft Edu theatre dance HourOfCode to work for my students, but experienced a show stopper! When I previewed it, the views kept glitching and the final curtain act failed to show up.😭 I tried on 2 different iPads w/ similar disappointment. #CSceleste

Hour of Code: Dance Party It's time to strut your stuff! Create your own dance party featuring hits by Miley Cyrus, BTS, Lil Nas X, Harry Styles, Nicki Minaj, Rosalía, and more!

Frogs! 🐸 Lots of frogs!! Greenscreening frogs, leaping frogs, code.org/dance party frogs!! Kids love ‘em.💗💚 #CSEdWeek #HourOfCode theme

Learn computer science. Change the world. Every student in every school deserves the opportunity to study computer science.

Yes! We love code.org courses, took 3years for our upper grades to get on track.
Kinders = Course A
1st = Course B
2nd = Course C
3rd = Course D
4th = Course E
5th = Course F
When we first started CSF w/ fidelity, our 3-5th all started on Course D. Gradually 4th & 5th caught up. #HourOfCode #EduSky

Kids have been coding dance projects and would love to have you join us for a dance along honoring their heartwork! Register at bit.ly/2024hidance for our zoom party webinar 12/12/24 3pm HST, 5pm PT, 7pm CT, 8pm ET. #EduSky 💗, Tūtū Celeste #CSceleste #TutuCeleste #HourOfCode
