LEADERS! Saying 20-21 was a LOST YEAR devalues the INCREDIBLE WORK of staff, students, parents, & communities. We LEARN BY DOING. We learn more by REFLECTING ON WHAT WE’VE DONE. What lessons will you take? #LeadFromWhereYouAre #1minwalk2work #ImpactTheNarrative #HackingLeadership

My 6th grade STEAM students are learning about 3D printing. Using Tinkercad the students are designing their own cell phone holder for hands free watching. #innovate #empower #tinkercad

Fostering creativity and innovation is a staple in my classroom. I am lucky to have such wonderful students who take risks with me.

Good to know! New marking period/semester means new GC!!!
If you have a spreadsheet of students emails you CAN paste the ENTIRE LIST into #googleClassroom on the people tab to invite students. No need for commas. Just click on the blob group it asks and it will auto separate. #googleEDU
