4.5 years ago, these boys redesigned the pieces of the game Qwirkle for blind/visually impaired students & shared their design process with their principal. We are excited to share their experience & others at ISTE in Denver June 23 at 2:00 PM in the STEM/STEAM poster session.

I love hearing from the students and Ms. Bishop about Tammy’s adventures!
Night-time at Magnolia Elementary means it's Tammy Tinker time! 🐭💡 The library mouse has been busy coding in @scratch and experimenting with @makeymakey. And guess what? She's left challenges for our students. What will she design next w/ tech at MES!

🍎 The classroom’s entrance has never been this lively! Students, how do you want to start? With a comforting hug, an energetic high five, a chill peace sign, or showing off your best floss? 🤗✌️💃✋#TCSHuskies #FirstDayOfSchool #WarmWelcomes

❇️ TinkerTip! ❇️ The Tinkercad Cruise tool makes it really easy to cut designs in half. Just decide where you want it cut and line up your cube. Then drag a new cube on top of that to cut the top off! ⬜⬜ ✂️ ⬜ ⬜ tinkercad.com/blog/tinkertip… #TinkerTips #TinkerTip #3Ddesign

As school leaders prepare for #backtoschool2023 I highly suggest creating a Hub! Shared folders and files are hard to navigate, especially for new team members. Put all of the important items in a building HUB…Over 75 files all in one place to quickly reference! 🤩 #googleET #googleEC @GoldEDULLC #edtech @GoogleForEdu @ELmagazine @teacher2teacher @techMEWithyou
