🎉 Congratulations to Mrs. Silbey on Leading Her First Professional Learning Session! 🎉
Mrs. Silbey kicked off her first PL with an engaging icebreaker designed to assess teachers’ comfort levels and needs around using technology in math instruction. Educators then dove into hands-on learning, exploring Brainingcamp (K–2) and Math Learning Center apps (3–5), actively solving problems using digital manipulatives aligned to grade-level standards.
The session also spotlighted Magic School AI, showcasing how this innovative tool can support unit and project creation through real-world classroom examples. Teachers were given dedicated time to explore the platform, collaborate, and ask meaningful questions, making the learning both practical and immediately applicable.
✨ Key Takeaways:
Effective digital manipulatives to enhance K–5 math instruction
Ways Magic School AI can support lesson design and elevate student mastery products
Way to go, Mrs. Silbey, what an impactful and inspiring first PL! 👏

💚 Proud Girl Scouts in Action! 💚
Girl Scout Troop 40107 from Alice Coachman Elementary School recently had a donation drive where they collected towels, socks, and rags for Viva Senior Living at Albany. The girls came up with the idea of what items to donate and personally picked the donation location, knowing the items would go directly to support the residents there.
They were very proud of themselves — and this is just the beginning! 👧🏽✨ Be on the lookout for more great things to come from these amazing Girl Scouts.
