Welcome to my broadcast and wait block tutorial in Scratch. As referenced above, this video is part of My School Year in Review video bundle.

Stage 5: Tips for Upcoming Students, Coding long conversation in Scratch
Welcome to my coding long conversations in Scratch. As referenced above, this video is part of My School Year in Review video bundle. This video goes over coding conversations for the correct amount of seconds so that it is on the screen long enough to read but not too long to create lag time in your interactive story. It is so interesting to see where student's minds take them in coding. It has so many possibilities that 2 student projects about the same subject will never look the same. Thanks

Family Math Night Home Edition
Family Math Nights are usually done at school but I created one that families can do at home. This comprehensive resource includes video tutorials, check lists, materials lists, and activity sheets for four home-friendly activities for grades K-5. I'm including the video below. My goal was to design the Family Math Night/Day to be different than simply doing a math activity at the kitchen table. It's their own personal event and I walk them through how to do it step-by-step. Watch the video
