In education sometimes we struggle from a lack of vision...it takes a community with a strong foundation, team work, communication with ALL hands on deck!! #coachHero #ncties19 @megan_mehta @MegwinEnglish @FloraEdCoach @teacherkwatson

"When you try to do something you don't know how to do, you'll fall down. That's guaranteed. Learning doesn't take place in the absence of mistakes. You need to find ways to learn from failure... it's one of the best teachers you can have (Kouzes & Posner, 2010, p. 104)." #ecumsa

Culture of Play. Nothing fires up the brain like play! #ncdlcn #centerstage @KyleHamstra @AYCOCKSCHOOL
“Play leads to brain plasticity, adaptability, and creativity. Nothing fires up the brain like play.” - Stuart Brown. Never thought that a toothbrush head and a battery can be transformed into a robot. Thank you @crewsertech and #NCDLCN for this experience!
Really experienced the benefits of play @NCDLCN. Thank you @crewsertech! The Engineering Challenge was indeed a challenge. #NCDLCN #STEMed
