One of the great honors of my life was the opportunity to write code for the Hubble space telescope.

My dad worked on many missions, including the Pioneer Venus, engineering a probe to detect ions in its atmosphere. #STEMhero #EduSky @edusky.bsky.social
Sadly, I have missed the #EduSkyAU chat for a few weeks now. Been juggling elephants 🐘 lately… It’s lovely to join in the fun when I can and also reminds me of the good ol’ #PrimarySTEMChat days!
Hello! I am lurking while getting ready for school.
I love the questions, and your responses!
I am a "veteran" of the #PrimarySTEMchat group with @rachaellehr.bsky.social and love #coding
Hearing your perspectives is uplifting.
Heading out, but wanted to say hi, and thanks!
#EduSkyAu #EduSky
#PrimarySTEMChat was the GOAT (as my kids would say!). There was so much sharing. I was lucky enough to catch with some of these people at EduTech and when I did my recent trip to NSW. #EduSkyAU
A1: My PLN through #PrimarySTEMChat (on Twitter before X) changed my life professionally and personally. I created connections online that became friends in person, and also the number of doors of opportunity it opened has been amazing. I have really missed the connections, and the banter #EduSkyAU
Hi Sandy! Glad to see you here... I always valued your input into #PrimarySTEMChat in the past. #EduSkyAU

As a sayonara, here's a fun link to peek at!
Thank you everyone!

A7: Hey, I give these to the kiddos, and they use half a contruction paper sheet. They work on folding and gluing to make a card to take home. (To extend the practice, we also use punches and they glue stars and hearts as well.)
Got lots of rolls!

I make serious use of the Dollar Store and my Amazon school wish list!
I love #Kitronic physical coding products for #Microbits
And I use bricklink.com like a crazy person buying #Lego for kits!

I feel your pain! I love #coding in #MinecraftEdu - but I can't build a thing! I had to change the keys so I would dig myself in a hole... and I get claustrophobic just having my player in a hole!

A4:
I love using #MinecraftEDU for coding and for building. I also love coding with #Microbits and #BeeBots

I love MissTechQueen! She has been my superpower! (TPT)
TeachersareTerrific is great for olders. (Also TPT)
And I am always peeking at VivifySTEM, and love the FB group, Elementary STEM Specials Teachers.

I love lists! They help me keep inspired with ideas, and encourage me to use varied materials!

I’d like to share my master #STEM resource reference lists. They are based on personal experience and comments from a great FB group I am in.
Blue on the left means I actually have it =]
(2 pages, sorry, can't upload pdf!)

It really is unifying when students can create together in their own chosen way, and let their own inner decisions be expressed in what they make! Love it.

A2: Our #makerspace is really a component of our k-5 #STEM curriculum. Often, STEM activities provide open-ended build challenges, but limit materials and require skill application in writing, measuring or meeting design aims.
#EduSky #EduSkyPrimary #PrimarySTEMchat #TLSkyChat
@edusky.bsky.social
Welcome! I look forward to learning from all of you.
#EduSky #EduSkyPrimary #PrimarySTEMchat #TLSkyChat
It's been an incredible transformation for so many libraries!
#Makerspace has done a great job of showing just how qualifed and important librarians and libraries are.
#EduSky #EduSkyPrimary #PrimarySTEMchat #TLSkyChat
A1: A makerspace is a location designed to support students as they create individual, unique responses to design challenges. Workspace, materials, tools and inspiration are provided.
It is not a play table. It's a creation launching pad!

Hello! I'm Debbie from Maryland. I come from a long line of tinkerers and teachers. I teach #CS , run the library, and started our #STEM program.
IWhen I heard about #Makerspace , I walked right up to the school board, and said "I want one!"

3... 2... 1.... Are you ready, #PrimarySTEMchat folks?
#EduSky @edusky.bsky.social #EduSkyPrimary
Thanks, @techielibgrl.com, for the heads up!
#PrimarySTEMchat folks, 😎 it would be cool to see you there!
#EduSky #EduSkyPrimary @edusky.bsky.social
The tlskychat.com link is t L sky. Haha, fooled me.
Could questions also be posted here?
Join us in #EduSky and #EduSkyPrimary and #PrimarySTEMchat!
If you put the fact that you are an educator in your profile you will find people will more easily follow you.
I love #STEM as well!
The more I read, the more I love! 🥽
Right now I am reading more of @dannynic.bsky.social 's clear, straightforward discussion of models. 📊
In our #STEM classes, I emphasize models, and love inspiring students to communicate 🧮🧾 their ideas with models. #PrimarySTEMchat #EduSky @edusky.bsky.social
Big ideas, identifying and addressing misconceptions and the value of models! You can peek at all of this on Amazon. The book is looking great! (I used my #kindle points and snagged it!) I plan to use it to improve my #STEM classes. #PrimarySTEMchat #EduSkyPrimary @edusky.bsky.social
@dailystem.bsky.social I saw this link in your feed... Ag students in Iowa used Vernier sensors to plan out and collect data for a local Berkshire pork farmer, investigating variables like tenderness and pH! #EduSky #PrimarySTEMchat @edusky.bsky.social

Those were the good ol’ days with #PrimarySTEMChat - I have missed the connections and banter ☺️ #EduSkyAU
There is so much to recommend about this:
I find it cathartic, myself.
Kinder and up can practice click and drag.
3rd and up can adjust setting and assess results.
Anybody can be creative and relax!

So when is our first #PrimarySTEMChat going to happen on @bsky.app? Or is it already happening?
@rachaellehr.bsky.social
@hostbrian.bsky.social
@imerinet.bsky.social
May I add you to my #PrimarySTEMchat Starter Pack?
I love this approach! We all stand on the shoulders of others.
