Teacher passion on display as @MrRotstein walks our @HaldaneSchool visitors through our MS #STEAM curriculum. Engineering, fabrication, mass production strategies, design thinking and sustainability, all make the cut 🪚. #WeAreChappaqua

Designs on Chess! ♟ Bell students in Tech 8 are getting ready to put their creative minds to work by designing and crafting custom chess sets. To kick things off, @MrRotstein covered the basics of the game to get them fully prepared for the design process. #WeAreChappaqua

What might you up-cycle from a coat hanger? How about a neat little foosball table toy? One of the many creative outcomes in @MrRotstein M.S. technology class! #WeAreChappaqua

They did a great job!

I’ve been looking for self-guided projects to utilize scrap wood and give students experience building from plans. So we made kazoos! Apologies to my colleagues in the building 🫣

3rd quarter wrapped with a #HydronicHarvest, a flurry of culinary labs, #CarbonFarming #LivingAnchorCharts and the 1st prototype of the BellBeehouse Website. Excited for what we can grow next quarter! @MrRotstein #BellBulldogs #WeAreChappaqua – at Chappaqua, NY

5th grade hummingbird obstacles + 8th grade putters? It’s a little bit mini-golf, and a whole lot of #DesignThinking magic. Look closer, and you might see some Collective Teacher Efficacy underneath. It’s a privilege to be in a community with these #BellBulldogs. #WeAreChappaqua – at Chappaqua, NY

Had the privilege of a Grafflin Greenhouse and Hydroponics Lab tour today. I am grateful to have colleagues throughout our district who go above and beyond to cultivate eco-literate citizens. #WeAreChappaqua #EcoLiteracy #Sustainability

STEAM Miniature Golf Course: moving features designed, constructed, and coded by 5th graders using Hummingbird robots; putter heads developed, 3D printed, and fabricated into golf clubs by 8th graders. @birdbraintech @MrRotstein @BobbyBellMS

Fifth grade students designed and 3D printed backpack tags, most of them using TinkerCad for the first time. Look at the wonderful variety of the designs! @BobbyBellMS #REBellTone

Inaugural hydroponics harvest at Bell! Seventh graders harvested the lettuce, chard and marigolds they grew from seeds. #WeAreChappaqua #ChapSustainability #BellBulldogs – at Chappaqua, NY

Bell Middle School just got 300 new Bulldogs! They are red, squirmy, and they love food scraps. What should we name them? #ChapSustainability #WeAreChappaqua #Hydroponics #FACS #Compost #vermicompost #FarmToTable #SlowFood #SlowSchools – at Chappaqua, NY

I feel as if “good instruction” in our field is like coming across beauty in the universe - it may not always be described in the same manner, but you surely know it when you see it! Add in the sweet smell of sawdust and it’s a win all-round @MrRotstein #ChapSTEAM #BellTone
