Overheard this week....
Mother talking to son who goes to Mindframe on his virtual learning days: The school system is allowing kids to come back four days a week now. Are you excited?
Son: I'm not going back four days a week. I want to stay at Mindframe. And can I change my days at Mindframe to Thursdays and Fridays so I can be there more days when [friend's name] is there? And do you have to pick me up so early?

#SundayScience The advancement in personalized student learning. A growing appreciation of individual preferences and aptitudes has led toward more “personalized learning,” in which instruction is tailored to a student’s individual needs.

Given the diversity of individual preferences, and the complexity of each human brain, developing teaching methods that optimize learning will require engineering solutions of the future.

Mindframe Education is in full swing at the new Mindframe Academy for K-8 students. We want you to join today for a supplemental Academic and STEM Program with flexible attendance options, and experienced onsite teachers. We are here to help! https://mindframeeducation.com/school-year-academic-stem/

Our #Fridayfocus Wondering what sustainable, high-producing agriculture might look like? This science project explores how analyzing bird's-eye-view pictures of a field can make farmers aware of variations in their fields.

Farmers can use this information to optimize their farming practices, or even feed this information to high-tech agricultural equipment so the machines can automatically adjust their actions (like fertilizing or watering) to the needs of a piece of land. Establish a procedure so a computer can infer the fraction of ground covered by grass using the color histograms of a bird's-eye picture of the area. Go STEM!

#tbt The Needle. Almost every culture on the planet has designed some sort of clothing. It didn’t take long for our ancient ancestors to figure out clothing is needed to protect our sad, hairless hides from the elements. The needle allowed us to create clothing that conformed to each individual, for every type of weather. The needle hasn’t changed much over the last 20,000 years or so. The first needles appear around 28,000 BC. Early needles are crafted from bone. Then copper, bronze, iron…well you get it. But the basic design has stayed the same. Go STEM!

#TuesdayTip Celebrate failure. We often learn more when something does not work than when it does. Promote an atmosphere that rewards risk taking and experimenting. Failure is a natural part of experimenting and taking risks. Visit https://mindframeeducation.com/school-year-academic-stem/

“Children need the freedom and time to play. Play is not a luxury. Play is a necessity.”- Kay Redfield Jamison, Professor and Psychologist

#SundayScience Provide energy from fusion. Human-engineered fusion has been demonstrated on a small scale. The challenge is to scale up the process to commercial proportions, in an efficient, economical, and environmentally benign way.

Our #FridayFocus Green Technology: Build an Electronic Soil Moisture Sensor to Conserve Water. Water is a valuable resource, and water shortages are a serious problem in many parts of the world.

The problem can be made worse by people who waste water; for example, by watering a garden or using sprinklers on their lawn (or a farmer taking care of an entire field) when it has rained recently or the soil is already moist.

How can you help conserve water and prevent such waste? One way is to build an electronic soil moisture sensor. This project will show you how to build a circuit that indicates whether soil is wet or dry, but the circuit itself is unprotected. It will be up to you to engineer a solution, like a waterproof carrying case that turns the basic circuit into a useful, portable soil moisture sensor. Go STEM!

#tbt Invention of Nylon: These activities investigate polymers. Nylon was first used commercially in a nylon-bristled toothbrush in 1938, followed more famously in women's stockings or "nylons" which were shown at the 1939 New York World's Fair and first sold commercially in 1940. Go STEM!

#TuesdayTip Be alert for opportunities to talk with your child about STEM-related topics. For example, talk about gravity when your child tosses a ball in the air.  Discuss fractions or percent when you slice a pie. Visit https://mindframeeducation.com/school-year-academic-stem/

“We are not what we know but what we are willing to learn.” – Mary Catherine Bateson, Writer and Cultural Anthropologist

#SundayScience. Making (in) History: Learning by Reinvention teachers can help students recognize that everything has history, and creatively engage them in reinventing that history.

Through this small making project, students will explore the history of innovation and communication. At the same time, learning about making electrical connections, how to use tools, and how to troubleshoot their work when it failed. Go STEM!

Our #Fridayfocus. Stopping apple oxidization. Stop those apples from turning brown with this oxidation-based project. Perfect for younger learners, students can predict, label, count, and experiment! Go STEM! www.mindframeeducation.com

#tbt Thomas Alva Edison’s cylinder phonograph brought music to the masses. It was the first type of record player, which used tinfoil sheets and a vibrating stylus. The 1857 invention was a far cry from the iPod, but it heralded the beginning of portable music. Just think—before the phonograph, if people wanted to listen to a song, they had to find someone to play it. Go STEM!

#TuesdayTip Inspire collaboration. Create an atmosphere of teamwork. Actively teach and role model teamwork skills. Promote an inclusive, respectful, relaxed environment that supports new ideas and questions. The control of the learning process should be transferred to the young people. Create new roles and rules for your groups that stress responsibility.
