A VR adventure today with Ms Crossman’s grade 2 class - what a fun field trip to the virtual amusement park! #edutech @edusky.bsky.social

Big week for #SpheroRVR - the perfect robot to bring outdoors! Ms Perry’s and Ms Babineau’s classes both used chalk to create obstacle courses to help review polygons and measurement, then drove RVR through them! #EduTech

Students in Miss Babineau’s class have created their own creatures and are now using @octostudioapp.bsky.social to share information about its physical characteristics, habitats and more! So imaginative! 🐙

In Ms Perry’s class, students have grouped themselves based on what variable they’re measuring (sound, sunlight, temperature and soil moisture) and coded @microbit.org to measure! They’ve used their micro:bits to find where the best locations in the school would be to let plants grow! 🌱 #EdTech

Miss Babineau’s grade 2 class used Codey Rocky to go on an adjective hunt - they found words spread around the room, determined if they were adjectives and then used them in a sentence! #EduTech #EduSky

Started with the flashing heart and some other tutorials but we’re now doing some measuring of variables for their gardens! 🪴

An incredible day of learning on our first Annual Innovation Day here at Anglophone East School District! Teachers and students came together to share, learn and be inspired - what an amazing group! #EduTech #EduSky

Mrs Purdy’s grade 2’s used Codey Rocky by #Makeblock and created their own creative obstacle courses! They tested and tried each other’s out as well, offering suggestions and improvements too! Great problem solving!

Ms Crossman’s grade 2’s used @octostudioapp.bsky.social to bring their creative writing prompts to life today! They are creating their own imaginary worlds with code! @edusky.bsky.social #EduSky #EduTech

Ms Dore’s grade 5 class at Mountain View have been ordering and comparing decimals, so we made a decimal maze that they coded their #Ozobot through, going from smallest to largest! Such a fun review! #EdTech @edusky.bsky.social

Anna Doucette @annadoucette.bsky.social · Apr 16

@magicschoolai.bsky.social did some amazing work in the Character Chat Bot Magic Student tool! Mr Lass’ grade 10’s used it to interview characters from Romeo & Juliet to better know who they’d be playing when they present scenes next week! #EdTech #EduSky

Since Ms Knowles’ grade 2 classes have been working on story structures, we thought making story maps for #Ozobot would be a great way to show what we know! Can Ozobot make it to the end of each story? #edtech #EduSky

In Ms Perry’s grade 3 class, we used #Minecraft to represent multiplication questions in array forms! This really helped the multiplication process come to life for them ✖️

Ms Allen’s grade 4 class is using #Ozobot and #blockcoding to practice giving precise instructions for their procedural writing unit! Such great conversations happening! #EduSky @edusky.bsky.social

Spring time with Scratch! Ms Fraser’s class used #ScratchJr to write and code springtime sentences today! They did amazing work! @edusky.bsky.social #EduSky #EduTech #DigitalStorytelling #Coding

At Mountain View School, Ms Perry’s grade 3 class used @schoolai.com to start off their unit on ecosystems and share their prior knowledge! They loved the activity and are revved up and excited to continue with this unit! #edutech #edusky

At Lou MacNarin School, Ms M’s grade 5 class had a great time reviewing equivalent fractions today with #Ozobot - they even created their own fraction quiz paths after! 🤖 #EduSky #EduTech @edusky.bsky.social

Anna Doucette @annadoucette.bsky.social · Mar 11

Just had the best time presenting about @schoolai.com and @padlet.com to teachers from around our district - teaching them the best ways to use AI tools! Big thanks to School AI for the swag table - everyone was so pumped! 🎉

This week Ms Perry’s class used #Ozobot to help practice telling time on a clock! They also had to write what activities they’d be doing at that time - they did a great job! @edusky.bsky.social #EdTech #EduSky
