Continuing our ⭐️ Review with an Era Brain Dump. Students listed everything they remembered, illustrated it, and created hashtags for each. They participated in multiple rounds adding as we rotated around the room. @HumbleISD_TMS @tms_stem @humble_SocSt
An amazing group of 8th graders! @longhornproject
Great group of students and a great field trip to the NASA Longhorn Project! We got to see Longhorns, 🐊 , beautiful gardens, plants and animal cells under a 🔬 , and 🚀 . We ended the day playing and hanging out with friends before the rain. @HumbleISD_TMS @tms_stem

A glimpse into our review activities: 4 corners, impromptu debates, stations, and "Guys, Mrs. Scholl is taking pictures of us again" 😂 Just too proud of the conversations these scholars have every day in RELA and how much deeper they are able to discuss! @HumbleISD_TMS @tms_stem
Thank you, @LoneStarFlight for engaging our 8th grade STEM students in meaningful and hands-on activities today! We designed airplanes, checked our hangars, heard amazing stories, and learned a ton! #justplanefun @HumbleISD_TMS

7th Grade STEM in Galveston today with @Hal_Needham on our hurricane history and preparedness tour! Really excited to see how our STEM teachers connect their content to this tangible experience, where history meets science and human ingenuity 🌊🌨️🧠⚙️ @HumbleISD_TMS @mswhite_TMS
7th grade STEM had an AMAZING time on our Galveston Tour with @hurricanehal_! It was cool to explore different parts of the island and learn about hurricanes, the sea wall, and different historical sites! @HumbleISD_TMS
Congrats to our 4 STEM students of the 9 weeks: Melanie, Jonah, Isabella, and Luke!!! @HumbleISD_TMS

As with many decisions teachers need to make when designing and facilitating PBL, how to write a driving question depends on your own style, your context, your students. Here are some suggestions and insights.

This is an example of a letter sent by a teacher to families to inform them about a project. It explains what PBL is, details the project, addresses assessment issues, and tells parents about how they can be involved.

DQ: How can we take an existing system within our society and improve upon it?
These girls analyzed problems in our legal system, researched the process to create a law, and developed a draft of their law to fix their problem! #TMSPBL @tms_stem @HumbleISD_TMS
