Many people may think that elementary students, especially those that are in the lower grade levels, do not have the ability to use technology in a genuine way. In this session we will talk about different projects, activities, and tools that our youngest students can use in their learning. From beginning typing to 3D printing, your students can do so much!
Unleash the power of storytelling in your STEM lessons! This session will guide you through transforming the "21 Elephants and Still Standing" narrative into a dynamic bridge-building challenge. We'll explore creative ways to integrate literature with engineering design, fostering collaboration and problem-solving skills in your students.
This interactive professional learning session offers educators an introduction to creating student-centered, thinking-focused mathematics classrooms. Drawing on the combined insights of Pam Harris’ Developing Mathematical Reasoning and Peter Liljedahl’s Building Thinking Classrooms in Mathematics, participants will explore practical strategies to move students from passive rule-followers to active thinkers.
