We are grateful for our community partners, specifically our first responders and the professionals at @OFallonFireDept We have been in contact with them throughout the day as they advised us to cancel classes early this morning at North Middle. Their quick response and action to contain the fire at Bill’s Service Center resulted in no damage to school property. Officials have assured us it is safe to be back in class tomorrow, March 2. #FZCommunity

Checking in at @ZumTwinChimneys as first graders tackle the Hour of Code. Technology teacher Rachel Boucher finds a way to create space for students to work on their own while providing support to each as she crosses the room. After about 15 minutes working out how patterns in the game build the code they need to reach the next level, Boucher asks them to remove their headphones so they can check in. Students are able to name their emotions (frustrated, confused, OK) and the class takes turns sharing opinions on the game.
“I’d rate it a five,” one student says with a small eye roll, adding that the game would have rated higher if Level 22 had been cleared.
Others agree, and are excited to learn they weren’t the only ones to get stuck on 22. With the feedback, Boucher changes course, creating time to collaborate and problem solve, laying the foundation for #21stCenturySkills. #TeacherProud #careerteched
