Examining sand from places around the world…what a great inquiry activity. Practicing both observation skills and application of earth science content. So cool!

Vance needs a good kick in the nuts. Anyone who heard him moments ago would be shaking their head. He’s speaking for the US and sounds like he’s speaking for Russia.

β€œThis is not acceptable” is about the minimum anyone could say about Vance! We can’t have someone representing the USA, especially the Vice President, calling the idea of democracy into question. I think I would call it treason.

Another great idea from @kellycroy.bsky.social
Schedule some time with/for YOURSELF! Use the calendar to put time in the day for yourself. Model this for your students...share your goals, talk through your strategies, and help them grow. #EduSky

Definitely an undervalued feature of iOS...Use your alarms, reminders, and timers to keep yourself on track! Help students direct their day, instead of having their digital time overtake their productivity. @kellycroy.bsky.social #EduSky

Set up Screen Time on iPad In Settings on iPad, set up Screen Time allowances and limits for yourself.

Help students monitor screen time on their iOS devices...

Exploring Environmental Sounds: Create a Soundscape in Educators across grade levels and disciplines can use this Keynote template and workflow to help students build digital soundscapes to explore the environment around them.

Any other science teachers looking at using soundscape ecology learning with students? We are building digital soundscapes for areas around our school. Easy process with #Keynote on #iPad. Here's a link to our process. Would love to collaborate! education.apple.com/resource/250... #AppleCommunity
