Big news for the Woodstock Elementary Woodchucks!
Congratulations to Beth Smith, named the VBCPS Instructional Technology Coach of the Year!
Tech-savvy, "science-rific," and master of making learning fun!🎉 @vbschools
Do you drive a work truck? Please consider volunteering your time (and vehicle!) for @WoodchuckWorld 's first annual Touch-A-Truck Event. Tiny people + big trucks = joy + magic.
Getting ready for a whole new year by painting watercolor cards for teachers and staff. Let’s make 2026-2027 the year we spread JOY.
Next year, put the @vbedfound golf tournament on your to-do list! Whether you play or drive the beverage cart, it’s good time for a great cause! vbef.org
It’s an ITS play date with @MrsHoldcraft @microbit_edu and plushpal.app. Just as much fun as you’d imagine!

This is Michael, and he will be joining us at the #ISTE Wayground booth for our Community Hour on Monday from 1:30 to 2:00 PM!
Michael is a tech coach at Virginia Beach City Public Schools in Virginia and a @waygroundai Game Changer. He has been championing Wayground for 9 years, presents at conferences like TCEA and FETC, and even brought literal magic with @GreenScreenGal to our FETC booth this year. When asked what his favorite part about Wayground is, he said "ENGAGEMENT! Ability to create and design support that students WANT to engage in!"
If you're going to be at #ISTE26, be sure to come by and visit Michael at our booth!

Summer is a great time to catch up on certifications. Thanks for the free training, @SnorklApp !
Listening to the @audible_com Harry Potter on an evening walk takes me right back to reading it to fourth graders 25 years ago. Still magic.

Most PD fails because it’s “nod & forget.”
What works instead:
• Start with real problems
• Let teachers play first
• Create tiny wins
• Support after training
• Be honest about AI limits
Adoption happens through trust.
