Here are places we can visit on the 29th for the webinar.

Here are places we can visit on the 29th for the webinar. Vance took me on a ride down the river and we got to the magnificent BIG FIRE! It was BEAUTIFUL! You'd have to see for yourself! We also visited Polar Bear Viewing Site, the campfire, and the Green Tower. Mircea showed Aaron and me the monument that he built during 2016. It was lots of fun visiting different places!

Hi EVO MC Members

Hi EVO MC Members,

I just wanted to let everyone know how much I enjoyed being a part of this group. I had so much fun participating in community building and developing such great relationships across the globe.

My husband and I decided to make a change in our lives, and are leaving our school and K12 education at the end of the year. We don't know yet where we will end up, but we are starting our search for new jobs in different professions or in higher education.

Once June arrives, I will no longer have access to my school email address and could possibly lose access to this group. I wish the best for everyone and hope to reconnect in other ways in the future!

Take care and mine on!

Responding to an invitation from Kim Harrison I got up this morning at 5 a.m. my time to attend the VSTE VE PLN meeting I announced on #learning2gether here http://learning2gether.pbworks.com/w/page/32206114/volunteersneeded#TueApr100030UTCVSTEVEPLNmeetingonlessonideasforusingMinecraftinschoolsettings. I came in on the tail end of a tour of a display of builds illustrating "lesson ideas for using Minecraft in school settings." I flew around and took some screenshots. If you can get on the VSTE Minecraft Server, you can /warp schoolwork to find the display. Personally I want to go back and try the railroad which appears similar to something Mircea Patrascu once built for us in #evomc15






This is about the best I've been able to do so far.
