Global Day of Design
On April 24 all students will begin planning their project for the Global Day of Design.
On May 2, 2017 Mitchell Middle School students will get the chance to participate in the Global Day of Design by building a game out of cardboard. These can be as simple or as complex as students want.
At 5:30 PM on May 2 all parents, with their children, are invited to come to MMS to see and play the games that have been designed. At this time, students are encouraged to show their parents how we use technology at school from iPads, to Chromebooks, the computer lab or the devices we have in the Maker Space.
Also on May 2, 2017 at 6:00 PM parents (and students) who are interested can join me to watch the documentary Most Likely to Succeed. The movie is about 90m minutes long. Snacks will be provided.
'Most Likely To Succeed is the best film ever done on the topic of school — both its past and its future. The film inspires its audiences with a sense of purpose and possibility, and is bringing school communities together in re-imagining what our students and teachers are capable of doing. Run, don’t walk, to bring this film to your school. After seeing this film, you’ll never look at school the same way again.' You can watch the trailer below.
If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact me.
Thanks for your support!
