When your mommy is a tech coach, you, of course, have a #3Doodler and a Terrapin #BeeBot at home to play with on a Snow Day! ❄️☃️

Today we were off for #LunarNewYear and had friends over for a play date. One of our activities was to create these maneki-neko paper circuits to bring good luck and fortune 🧧🎍🎊😺

I love when my hobbies & passions connect w/ what I do everyday. I love to draw & created an example of a paper circuits activity that will be a choice when I visit a class at Dows Lane next week. We’ll be using the LEDs Kit I developed, #Ozobot, & #3Doodler for #GlobalSchoolPlayDay #IrvingtonUFSD

If you haven’t heard, cookie season has begun for many Girl Scouts, so we needed to make our daughter’s video for her Digital Cookie page. We used telepromptermirror.com, #AdobeExpress and @wevideo.bsky.social to achieve all the elements she wanted! We app smash at school AND home 😎

This week our MS teachers whose classes are tied to the NYS CBT engaged in a @castlelearning.bsky.social training session w/ Shamika from #LHRIC It was the overview & refresher our teachers needed to give students an opportunity to engage w/ a platform that emulates the exam. Thank you!

Students in Ms. Meiseles’ 6th Grade Student Skills class completed an activity where they examined their home study environment for what was & wasn’t working. They created a visual floor plan on a #Canva whiteboard to accompany their written work and presented to the class. #IrvingtonUFSD

It’s time to #3Dprint more Clippies on my #Prusa3D printer. My stash is low 😂 These are printed backwards so the front face is the smoothest. Next I’ll try these on a holographic p-flat 🤩

Brought home a few @microbit.org for my 5 and 8 year olds to play with during the holiday break. We all did the Pet Hamster tutorial together and I showed how you can customize it. We made a pet kitty! So fun!

What a beautiful thing! 🤩 #EduSky #EdTechSky

Three classroom sets of #Ozobots arrived today! 🤩 The best way to start off the week! These are more materials from a generous Irvington Education Foundation grant. #IrvingtonUFSD

Aaaand, we’re back! #3Dprinting for the holidays with our #Prusa printer!

It’s been a great #CSEdWeek at #IrvingtonUFSD ! Mrs. Cassidy & I ran #HourofCode during lunch on Tues w/ a choice board. Kids loved #turingtumble & @microbit.org I co-taught unplugged coding & Micro:bit in 6th grade student skills w/ our LMS Mrs. Richardson. Chris Keitel from #Google also visited.

Really excited for this to have arrived this week! Thank you, @padlet.com #IrvingtonUFSD and I appreciate you!

Just did a much needed website overhaul over at www.geekygoggles.com Spent time listing all my presentations. TFW you take a step back to look at what you’ve accomplished in 18 years in education with many more to go 😮🤯🤩 Always looking forward to what’s next, but nice to appreciate where I’ve been

Oh, you know, just playing #Kahoot at home with the fam over Thanksgiving Break 🙌 And I just learned that I can #Apple #AirPlay over our #Roku ! Best discovery! #EduSky #EdTechSky #EdTech

Just got back from #NYSCATE yesterday. What an amazing event! Loved the new venue at the Turning Stone. This year, I had the pleasure of presenting w/ @teachbacon.bsky.social & Jen Wilson from PNWBOCES. We also got to meet & connect w/ new friends at @briskteaching.bsky.social 😊

Will I see you at #NYSCATE Sunday-Tuesday? I’ll be there and I’m presenting with a team! #AI

How awesome is this? 🤩 #GenAIMap for #Education provides a list of #GenAI tools specifically targeted at #EDAi use and broken down by use case for #teachers and #students. Check out some amazing new tools (including #Quizizz) and please share them with your networks. #EduSKY lnkd.in/dpWvXUsQ
