Being kind online is a skill we can teach. Let students practice safe, respectful interactions in classroom tools and reflect how their words impact others. #edtechteamonline
Ivy and Gigi visited @JJHSPatriots today for a visit with some students nominated by their teachers! Everyone loved their time with the trained therapy dogs, and we can’t wait to pet them next school year! #middleschoollibraries #therapydog

I spent a super special and inspiring day at Jefferson Junior High in Naperville! Thank you, students, @rnelson_lcd, and teachers!

Game analysis in Jefferson’s Code Explorers class to support peer reviews and revisions to their Capstone work. Coders were able to get ideas of how to revise and ensure Capstone games are winnable. @Naperville203 Thanks, Blake and Rebecca for letting me visit!

Some Patriots staff wore red, white, & blue to celebrate Pres. Carter's 100th birthday! A few classes even got to see Mrs. Nelson's signed copy of The Little Baby Snoogle-Fleejer and heard about what it was like to grow up in Plains, GA, where Pres. Carter is from & still lives!

Mr. Vanecek’s PLTW classes had story time with Mrs. Nelson this week! Students made connections between the book (Seven Blind Mice) and computer programming, discussing the importance of problem solving as a team and with an open mindset.
Our first LA department meeting of the school year brought me so much joy! Excited for this book study and PD with @MrSchuReads

This is me holding my friend John Schu’s beautiful brand new book.
You should buy this book because it is brilliant and important. I’d love to see this book on next week’s best seller lists.
Schu has helped so many books find so many readers. I hope we will help get his phenomenal book into the hands and hearts of readers.
I love when students show how much they are enjoying a new book! This student painted her nails to match the cover. 💗

Love that the @JJHSPatriots are featured on Neal Shusterman’s post! instagram.com/p/C14nYOaS7Kl/…
These @JJHSPatriots got creative in the Makerspace during recess & started their own project. They have folded hundreds of cranes, hung them from the ceiling, & created a display where other students can learn origami too! Love seeing this creativity and initiative! #elevate203

Love seeing this in schools - librarians replacing the "nonfiction" labels. They say the circulation goes up right away!
So incredibly proud of our @JJHSPatriots, who are most certainly readers! instagram.com/reel/C0yuanfAu…
