Twenty-six teachers from all 4 elementary schools participated in the Advancing Computer Science Education (ACSE) grant this school year. These teachers worked diligently to incorporate the 6 Computer Science strands into either their Science or History Curriculum. These lessons were hands-on and engaging for the students and according to the students were always over way too soon. Our county contributed almost 200 new lessons to GoOpenVA, the state's online lesson plan repository. Our ITRTs, Tracy Shifflett, Kristin Vaughn, and Nichole Brumfield enjoyed facilitating this grant so much that they have applied for the grant again with the focus being the Middle and High Schools for next year. All 200+ lesson plans can be found on GoOpenVA.org in the ACSE Page Group.

This year English Learner Night focused on cultural arts. Students learned about Frida Kahlo and created their own self portraits. We did a unit on “The Best Part of Me” where they chose what they liked best about themselves and wrote about it. For their family connect project they picked a famous artist from their home countries and did projects that were displayed. This year we had several teachers join us and our middle school Spanish teacher had her students create projects to display as well. We hope to continue to grow this event and have more of our families participate. Este año la Noche de Estudiantes de Inglés se centró en las artes culturales. Los estudiantes aprendieron sobre Frida Kahlo y crearon sus propios autorretratos. Hicimos una unidad sobre “The Best Part of Me” donde eligieron lo que más les gustaba de ellos mismos y escribieron sobre ello. Para su proyecto de conexión familiar eligieron a un artista famoso de sus países de origen e hicieron proyectos que se exhibieron. Este año tuvimos varios maestros que se unieron a nosotros y nuestra maestra de español de la escuela secundaria hizo que sus alumnos crearan proyectos para exhibir también. Esperamos seguir haciendo crecer este evento y que más familias nuestras participen.
