Sensational Sixth Week

Another awesome week in STEM lab! This week the lab hosted: Ms. Caro's Kinder, Ms.Flores' 1st grade, Ms. Lugo's 2nd grade, Ms. Ancona's 3rd grade, Ms. Gentry's 4th grade, and Mr. Torres' 5th grade.

Ms. Caro's Eco-Schools' Green Heroes did a fantastic job on their Campus Clean-Up days!  In the STEM lab, they mastered the vocabulary: mouse, keyboard, monitor, CPU, icon, program and bug! They made tremendous progress in their code.org course as well!

Ms. Flores' 1st graders were programming powerhouses! Several students completed stages 1-13 in just one week! They also learned about the different parts of a computer and honed their "Navigator/ Driver" skills for collaborative coding.

Ms. Lugo's Eco-Schools' Green Heroes handled their Recycling Team job like pros and began drafting plans for Phase 2 of the awareness and education plan. They began working with Scratch and LOVE it!

Ms. Ancona's students started work on Code.org Course 2. It was a big jump from Blockly Pictures to Blockly words, but they did a great job! It was wonderful to see the collaborative problem solving and hear such effective communication as they worked through challenges together!

4th grade worked their way through a ton of material! They set up their personal Scratch accounts, completed the introductory lessons to learn the blocks, and began creating and sharing their own digital projects!

Mr. Torres' 5th graders went to their Leadership jobs, started work in Code.org Course 3, and worked on creating a Coding Conundrum Crowd-Sourcing wall.

Thanks to all for a great week of innovation, exploration, collaboration, and outstanding effort!
