Collaboration Success

We are at the end of our third week together and we have been extremely successful collaborating with one another!  We are working on our STEMtalk scripts for the state of Georgia competition and students have excellent ideas!  

 This study group formed without direction from Mrs. Smith!  
 Adding their thoughts to address the question 
"How has STEM changed your experience as a student?"

Our First Collaboration Lesson: Being a Home Team

Students are eager to start their first project, but need to experience several collaboration lessons in order to be successful in their project groups.  I was so impressed with the level of conversations students had about how to be a home team and how to conduct an effective meeting!

First Day of School: Going Paperless!

Today was the very first day of school and students already logged in to their computers, set up their Google accounts, created a new document, and learned how to share that document with others.  
 I am so impressed with all the students!  Today was over before we knew it!    
I just had to capture a few candid pictures of their excellent collaboration!
