I was surprised that today wasn’t February 2nd because it sure felt like Groundhog Day on the @MBTA_CR

As we get ready for sukkot, I’m grateful for the time with A as we celebrate the chaggim together.
And for nature for providing us with the mini pumpkins for our front yard from the ones that decomposed last year.

For some reason, my students did not find my Family Feud of beakers vs flasks nearly as entertaining as I do. 🤷🏻♀️
Some, at least, appreciated my enthusiasm

PAEMST represents less than .000001% of national budget. Its demise will save American citizens about 1 penny each.“NSF remains committed to supporting the nation’s STEM teachers.” The question is: How will they show it? forbes.com/sites/taliamilgro…

Stand Back; I’m going to try science. The 1st official #nerdytshirtfriday of the 2025-2026 schools year. Definitely not the transition to school that I would have expected/wanted for my 25th year in the classroom, but here we go.

Back to school in three pics.
Before school day
After school day
Surviving a stressful school day with a black raspberry frappe, though this time I had to do it w/out the kid

One of these years I’ll be able to sleep before the first day of school.
This was not one of those years.

Last parting advice for A as he starts his new adventures at UML: Never Trust an Atom. They Make Up Everything. #nerdytshirtfriday

How did my child tell my ex-husband that my engagement was broken off?
That he (ex-husband)didn’t have to worry about getting new health insurance because I still cover him

You know you’re a chem teacher when…
You have a collection of @FlinnScientific safety posters in your classroom.
And yes, I still have Carol. #IYKYK #iteachchem

Those of you who were at #TheMole at @ChemEd2025 heard me talk about the group I went to Morocco with: well, when they heard life through me an unexpected plot twist & I was so so sad, they sent me this. This is what I mean by they became family after less than 2 weeks

While I prefer plot twists in books to those in my own life, the only thing to do is read on and see what happens next.

Sometimes (maybe too frequently) life sends you reeling.
Really grateful for some amazing friends in my life.

Thinking about submitting a #BCCE2026 program proposal? Be sure to connect your #ChemEd ideas to one or more of our six Conference Contexts.
📌 Learn more about each context:
conferences.union.wisc.edu/b…
📌 Review proposal guidance:
conferences.union.wisc.edu/b…
#ChemistryEducation
ALT A banner titled “Conference Contexts” displays six circular icons, each representing one of the guiding ideas for BCCE 2026. From left to right: Building and maintaining communities of practice – represented by a network of connected dots. Centering authentic phenomena – represented by a magnifying glass. Educating for a sustainable future – represented by a globe with a thermometer. Engaging in scholarly teaching – represented by a graduation cap. Fixing systems, not people – represented by a gear. Integrating technology effectively – represented by a computer chip. Each icon alternates in color between pink and teal, with bold black text beneath each.

At some point during #ChemEd2025, someone asked me about whiteboard stands. These are the ones that were made for me. Hope this helps. #ITeachChem🥽 #EduSky🍎 #ModChem
