Hello all, very excited to be back for Scratch Day this year LIVE & IN-PERSON @Vernier with SPECIAL GUEST Algorithmar* (or Maren) from the Scratch Team!
Since ScratchEdPDX was a personal initiative from Rick and I, and were currently both on the OCSTA Leadership board - ScratchEdPDX teacher meetups is also now offically a OCSTA event !
ScratchEd Meetups are informal gatherings for educators who work with (or are interested in working with) Scratch!
-
We start with networking over light refreshments, getting to know fellow attendees and sharing what people want to explore during the meetup.
-
Our guest Maren will give a short presentation on some of her favorite Scratch related topics!
-
We then collaboratively decide how to structure our learning and then form small groups based on our different interests. Maybe you want to have a discussion about classroom strategies or get more practice with Scratch—or something else entirely. Feel free to move between groups if the session that you're in isn't working for you!
-
After our sessions we gather as a whole group and group sharing. You might pose a question to discuss with the group, or share something from your classroom. This is a great time to inspire and be inspired!
What should You bring?!
Curiosity.
Excitement.
& a device to make on will be helpful! 😁
