All set for coding with @microbit_edu on Monday! I am grateful that the @DuPageROE funded a grant to put supplies in both my remote and in person learner’s hands!

Lesson planning for effective remote learning takes more time than for live classes
Lesson planning to do both live and remote teaching effectively simultaneously takes more time than for remote learning

I am so proud of my fellow teachers for stepping out of their comfort zones to find new ways to connect with their students while learning at home.

Here's an amazing story and why I love my job... A few weeks ago, I saw a teacher tweet a video of a Tetris game a student named Spencer made on @codeorg.

3 years ago MIT grad student Katie Bouman led the creation of a new algorithm to produce the first-ever image of a black hole.
Today, that image was released.

Happy Friday! You have to love when a student uses @microbit_edu to program NeoPixel lights for a crab rave. #ccsd66 #microbit

Don’t wait for your district to offer a training. Don’t wait for your school to “develop” you.
You’re a talented professional and can take ownership of your learning.
Take full advantage of what your school offers, but be a continuous learner.
Own your learning.
