I’m so sad tonight that I won’t get to see my students tomorrow. Let’s work this out quickly! I need my kids and they need me!

I’m so proud of these girls who took a chance with me as I facilitate my first @GirlsWhoCode club! Day one is in the books! We learned about input, output and brainstormed ideas for our coding project! We also made our @scratch accounts! #wave @vistangss @MarylandMakos

This guy is growing and growing on my mandarin orange tree. Eagerly anticipating a butterfly/moth. He might eat it all but he will be healthy and I’ll buy another next spring. #kindascared #kindaexcited #natureisweird #lizardcaterpillar

Science and language are interconnected through sense-making. Such a blast presenting with @MsGurell at Day 2 of @VistaNGSS 2019 Summer Institute focusing in on #CANGSS and #ELD. I love seeing science at the core of integrated ELD. So powerful!
