Little Bits

Little Bits are an “open source” library of electronic modules that snap together with magnets. These magnetic circuits allow students to prototype, learn, and create just about anything. As students manipulate these devices, they are learning how to use different circuits to create just about anything that they can dream up. As they place these circuits together, they become a network – each circuit working off of each other to create light, sound, movement and much more.

Thankful!

Comparison Lesson w/ Class
I really thankful for a number of reasons.  First of all, I am thankful that my team works hard to help kids learn.  Secondly, I am thankful that I work in such an awesome district - one that allows me to take risks as a teacher, and change the way the 21st century learning looks  feels.

Augmented Reality

We are thinking about doing something with a free app called Aurasma. Using this app, parents could subscribe to your channel and see what their child is doing for back to school night. Great idea!!!
