During innovation, we had 1st Gr Ss exploring the wonders of Artificial Intelligence! Their minds were blown as they tried out QuickDraw w/ Google. It's amazing how powerful and accessible AI has become for all ages. @SHPK8 @SHPK8innovation #FutureOfEducation #AIForAll #QuickDraw

This is what PE is all about. @SquareStateSk8 @CANdAid @NREL_Bengals @DykesDeAnn #physed #stvrainstorm
I want to be like @olsoncommakale when I grow up!
We had the best afternoon with our friends at @CANdAid and Square State Skate! Our 3rd-5th graders were so excited to receive their new skateboards. Thank you so much for supporting our school! Video coming soon! #stvrainstorm @SvvsdSchuh @SVVSD

What an exciting day at @SHPK8! Anschutz Neuroscience Outreach Event!
Station 1: How does our brain grow & change
Station 2: How do we hear sounds?
Station 3: What does a brain and spine feel and look like?
Station 4: How do we taste?
Thank you @cu_noggins! #StVrainStorm

Computer science lesson day! Teaching 5th graders about the importance of sequencing for algorithms.
Lesson: Draw a character, write an algorithm that corresponds w/ your sketch, have two Ss try it out, review their sketches, how could we improve your instructions? #CSforAllSF
So lucky that I get to work with these ladies everyday! Best team ever!
I have been solo for the past 4yrs & I anticipated it would be an adjustment to lead a team. Yet, it’s been so fulfilling. They have gone above my expectations- they inspire, challenge & energize. Most of all,they have made our vision become real. These women are game changers 💛

1st graders had fun at the Denver Aquarium for their Innovation field trip! Ss completed a scavenger hunt, learned about the properties of water through hands-on activities, and got to see some of the animals we've been learning about in our ocean unit! @SHPK8 @SHPK8innovation

5th Gr Ss dive deep into ocean ecology before they start to learn about problems in different aquatic ecosystem. They made food webs. Then, Ss used ‘draw or block code’ using the @SpheroEdu app to follow the energy path on each web! @SHPK8 #StVrainStorm 🌊🦀🐙🤿
We've been busy during Innovation this week! @Sphero Indi with K-2, prototypes of backpacks and trophies for partners in 3rd/4th, and creation stations with 5th! @SHPK8innovation @SHPK8 #StVrainStorm
We wrapped up our lesson on the phases of the moon by creating models of them with OREO cookies! #stvrainstorm

Ss created a teaching tool to help their classmates learn about the branches of our U.S. Government. Ss created iMovies, posters, and slideshows. Some even got to present using the mini-projectors! #stvrainstorm
Lots of team building over the last two weeks! Card towers, longest paper chain, and the Number Challenge from Sara Vanderwerf! It's going to be a great year in room 111🎉
