Next steps and support for Webinar #1 of the Curriculum Review Academy.
This is a video to support educators as they review and remix during the June 2020 Curriculum Review Academy. You can use the written version of the support directions.
Using Sphero robots in the classroom to enforce mathematical concepts and connections related to geometry, trigonometry, and basic algebra and introduce students to basic programming concepts. Students can explore through different tasks that deal with rate of change, distance formula (Pythagorean Theorem), angle of rotation (basic trigonometry), and related topics while applying those concepts to a physical activity. The Sphero tools also allow students with different programming experiences to tailor their work to fit their skill level from basic (block programming) to advanced (Java). The tasks also promote collaboration between students to problem solve issues on the fly as they work to reach a common goal or compete to outdo other groups.

Learn how your school or district can host your own robotics competition/showcase for students in grades K-8. Students of all ability levels program and engineer as they compete against other teams within the district. There are many advantages to hosting your own district event. Leave this session with a clear plan / materials for a competition this year!

What is a SOAR Analysis? SOAR is a postive, strength-building analysis that a team can use to build an approach or future strategy based on reflecting about their current strengths, opportunities, aspirations, and results. When faced with a challenge, it is often routine to think about threats or dangers. SOAR provides a positive approach that is still results driven.This template could be used with students as they plan problem based learning projects or in preparing a solution for a real world issue. The template could also be used for professional development and school improvement.
STEAM ideas centered around popular children's books. Ideas will be shared on engineering projects to be done with these stories, as well as science, technology, math, and science connections as well. Sample engineering plans will be shared, as well.

This session will highlight several successful social studies lessons and strategies utilized by the presenters to engage high school social studies students (grades 9-12). These lessons are intended to spark student engagement and collaboration. Lesson plans will include historic newscasts, 3D printing, and social studies music videos. These lessons can be tailored to fit the needs of any secondary social studies learner.

SAMPLE data notebook that contains sections for each of the four core classes. It also has a learner profile, which is especially helpful for teachers when creating lesson plans. It incorporate multuple subjects, and can include various pieces of date, such as testing history. It can be altered to meet the needs of your team or students, and with SlidesMania, there are a plethora of other formats that can be customized. This resource was developed as part of a professional learning opportunity funded by the NCDPI Digital Learning Initiative Planning Grant.
Tools that are considered to be the favorites for our Digital Integration Facilitators and teachers across the district will be showcased. Let me show you how we use these tools in the our classes to enhance our STEM learning.

Students will create a representation for the molecules in a solid, liquid, and a gas. They will then animate their representations to mimic the movement of the molecules inside of each type of matter.
