However, its the kids that really step up to make the event what it is. Their creativity goes wild and they get a chance to express ideas. I step out of their way and let them be the dreamers. It's great to see, and I enjoy this time of year, every year. ]]> 2022-04-21 15:17:53 UTC https://padlet.com/kevinkemper/6rq4jjgz0bsc299h/wish/2152220041 World Championship Qualifying Robotics Team davidnelson4 https://padlet.com/kevinkemper/6rq4jjgz0bsc299h/wish/2152222938 2022-04-21 15:19:39 UTC https://padlet.com/kevinkemper/6rq4jjgz0bsc299h/wish/2152222938 This year more and more classes are embracing making and using the makerspace with their students! davidnelson4 https://padlet.com/kevinkemper/6rq4jjgz0bsc299h/wish/2152233254 2022-04-21 15:25:42 UTC https://padlet.com/kevinkemper/6rq4jjgz0bsc299h/wish/2152233254 Racing Club https://padlet.com/kevinkemper/6rq4jjgz0bsc299h/wish/2152243849 Building this race track with this team has been such fun!

Some of our 6th graders came to us from hard places, and were very jaded. I've seen them really start to feel comfortable here at IC and open up about some of their experiences.

There doesn't always have to be recorded data for STEM builds, specific academic purposes for read alouds, strict on-topic conversation only, etc. I love walking by rooms and seeing kids and teachers NOT doing academic tasks 24/7 like drill sergeants and soldiers. ]]> 2022-04-21 19:08:07 UTC https://padlet.com/kevinkemper/6rq4jjgz0bsc299h/wish/2152562464 https://padlet.com/kevinkemper/6rq4jjgz0bsc299h/wish/2152564468 Skating with my students today was such a community builder and we had SO much fun!]]> 2022-04-21 19:09:42 UTC https://padlet.com/kevinkemper/6rq4jjgz0bsc299h/wish/2152564468 Surgery kelleymacdonald https://padlet.com/kevinkemper/6rq4jjgz0bsc299h/wish/2152564485 To feel defeated when I was stuck in the hospital, I cannot tell you how nice it was to hear from staff members and students.
