Last week, 3rd-6th Ss listened to & discussed Charro Claus & the Tejas Kid. Then they wrote about how they might deliver gifts to all of the kids in Dallas. This week, they got to build & code their vehicles w/LEGO. #hourofcode @GPeabodyElem @DISD_Libraries @ProjectReadDISD

For #computerscienceeducationweek my PK-2nd & FLS friends discussed what robots are & how we communicate with them. Then they got to pretend to be robots as they engaged in this unplugged coding activity. #hourofcode @GPeabodyElem @DISD_Libraries @ProjectReadDISD @DallasisdSTEM

We are only just beginning to show impact & will continue to provide technology & STEM resources to over 50 additional @DISD_Libraries going into the 2024-2025 school year! We are preparing our students for jobs we don’t even know exist yet and fostering future leaders and innovators. Through our libraries, every single student will have access to resources that foster a love of reading, curiosity, creation, and opportunity!

Our #scholasticbookfair family event had a great turn out. We even had NEHS, the @dallaslibrary, @storyvoicelive, & Dog Man. 😎 Thanks, everyone! 2 more days of BOGO shopping to go #ChargerLibrary @DISD_Libraries @ProjectReadDISD @GPeabodyElem @ICanReadDallas
