November 14th-18th #edufreeze #frozen #letitgo


#EDUFREEZE
EDUFREEZE? What's that you say? It's a fun challenge based on mannequin challenges sweeping the country! This past week, schools across the country have been taking the #EDUFREEZE challenge and filming kids frozen in time. Check out this blog post by Brad Gustafson about the #edufreeze at his school and a few videos below. This coming week we would love to capture you, our students, and staff -- frozen still. There are two ways to take the challenge... you can set up your own #edufreeze video indoors or outside and have your students help with the filming and production. Or, Amy and I can come and capture you #edufrozen! Either way, take a look and join the #edufreeze challenge! The first video is an entire school :) Post your video to Twitter and add the #edufreeze hashtag along with #ncsstar #ncsinnovate. Have FUN!
