Does gravity affect heat transfer? My fifth graders are curious to see what happens when they run their experiment ON THE ISS!! Results from Earth Blueline=black sensor, redline=white sensor. Any guesses what will happen? #questforspace @Kelly_Cougars @KellyThinkTank #cusdlearns

Today, 5th graders ran their experiment to determine which color absorbs/cools faster on Earth. Tomorrow, students will run experiment on the International Space Station to compare how gravity may affect heat transfer. #questforspace #cusdlearns @KellyThinkTank @Kelly_Cougars

Contrary to stereotype, middle school girls outperformed boys on the 2018 Technology and Engineering Literacy exam - even though they were less likely to have taken a class in the field ahead of time. #GirlsInSTEM amightygirl.com/blog?p=24574

@Kelly_Cougars⁩ fifth graders are learning to read and write code for their heat transfer experiment here on Earth. ⁦⁦@questforspace⁩, our students cannot wait to run their experiment on the International Space Station!! #cusdlearns #kellyroar #edtech

First graders using OzoBots to learn how to draw code for a line following color-decoding Bot. Pure joy seeing their code work. #kellyroar #cusdlearns #edtech

This is what you get when you expose all students to programming and robotics during the school day... Inspired third graders that don’t want to stop, not even for recess. #kellyroar #edtech #cusdlearns

Can you program your Space Rover to travel from Earth to Mars and deliver materials to sustain life? These kids can with help from the Valley Girls 2.0 Robotics Team and Sally Ride UCSD students. Go Kelly Science day. Thank you #CEF

Does the size of rockets fin affect how far they can travel? First graders engineering during Kelly Into Orbit Science Day! Thank you #CEF!!

Into Orbit Science Day at Kelly today kindred designing Moin rovers that can carry a Lego Astronaut and handle driving over moon craters. a day full of inquiry!

Inquiry is knowing there is order in the world, but sometimes a little disorder may lead us to understanding and knowledge. Teachers received their lab coats of Inquiry today for our STEAM Day. Let’s see them get a bit messy and loud!

A SHOUT OUT to the Kelly LunarTics. They exemplify how to fail forward. After their last tournament where they finished last, came back determined to do better, worked tirelessly to figure it all out! At CEF, earned 4 trophies in CoreValues, RobotDesign, Project & 3rd Overall!

What an amazing day Kelly students had last week at the CEF Robotics tournament. So many lessons learned, but what a way to end the season, including one of our teams took third place overall, go Kelly Robotics!

Third graders have to collaborate along with their collaborating robots to transport a remote plant specimen. It take a robot village.
