Turtle graphics is a great way to show students that they can experiment, explore, and make something cool without understanding all of the details up front. I love the tone it set for AP Computer Science this year!
Day 2: Marshmallow Challenge!
I love starting the year with the Marshmallow Challenge! This group had the tallest structure. Surprisingly, all groups elevated their marshmallow off the table at least some.
Day 1: AP Classroom Renovations
I was thinking we may be sitting on the floor whiteboarding tomorrow, but the new tables arrived today! The renovated room I which I’ll teach AP Physics looks great!

Day 0: New Classroom Arrangement
We replaced the individual desks with tables arranged in groups of four. This will be much better for Modeling Instruction!
