Love it when my students can be super creative. Extremely sad for them they will not have access to Minecraft EDU next year.

I love when one of my students get to teach a new @WiltElementary student how to code with @microbit_edu!! Makes me proud of how much all my kiddos have grown with coding!! @VenitaB_teach #JCPSDigIn
When a @WiltElementary student leaves you a private message on one of their @tinkercad projects by using the text feature, you listen to their request. Talk about innovative! #JCPSDigIn
Q4….we have several students use Google Translate (English to English) to scan a reading passage on an iPad and have GT read it back to them. This allows them to practice comprehension skills with auditory support. #JCPSDigIn

Meet Katherine Johnson, the #HiddenFigure and the mathematician who helped put the first man on the moon. Johnson was a literal “human computer” who calculated the flight trajectories for the first Americans in space. #BlackHistoryMonth
I am OBSESSED with @microbit_edu’s Micro:bits!! The project was to code a Harry Potter hat sorter, this @WiltElementary kiddo added special music!! #JCPSDigIn @drmcguffin
Rock, Paper, Scissors……with @microbit_edu devices!! @WiltElementary’s @GirlsWhoCode brining coding to life!!
Fingers crossed!! First time in almost three months they both have worked and ran at the same time!!
How amazing when a student inspires a project amongst his classmates, and then discover new ways to grow their 3D printing passion!! @WiltElementary 5th graders are so innovative!! @JCPSDigIn @drmcguffin @JCPSKY
Congrats to two of @WiltElementary’s Robotics teams for making it to the finals at Newburg Middle’s Winter Carnival @VEXRobotics competition. Congrats to Layla and Andrew and their team for winning 4th place!! @JCPSDigIn @JCPSKY @LibraryWilt
