Welcome to the new site!
Blogging is something that I really got into a little over a year ago. Never would I have ever imagined myself being a writer. But the more I write, the more I also connect with other educators blogs. I’m proud to announce my nominations of some great educators/blogs that have inspired me! Best Teacher Blog…
To try to even put the last few days into words is impossible. So bear with me as I try to type all this out. For those of you who didn’t know, I was selected as a White House Champion of Change for being a “Connected Educator”. Someone who is “taking creative approaches in using…
This last week we spent working on fractions, fractions, and more fractions! I started the week by looking for a great project that I could use as a “review” for my students, since their fraction test was on Thursday. As many of you who are regular readers of my blog know, I don’t teach any…
Today was a rough day, I’ll just admit that now. But something interesting happened today. A moment that hit me like a ton of bricks. All of us in education do incredible things, and many of the things that we do go completely unnoticed. We can even think about that in even our personal lives….
As we close out the second six weeks of our school year, I’ve been doing a lot of reflecting. My first six weeks was a complete disaster. I was a mess and it reflected on my students. And as I’ve looked back at the difference between my first and my second six weeks I noticed…

I know I know I know….it’s been a few weeks since I’ve blogged about my classroom! Let me apologize! I’ve been learning my limits, and have taken on a little too much for the month of October haha. But here’s what’s been happening… So we’ve gotten to do a bunch of really great things the…
Augmented reality(AR) is a tool we believe is very powerful and a game changer, but we often field the question: Why use augmented reality? During this post we hope to answer this important question, as well as inspire you to start using augmented reality in your classroom, school, community, and more! Augmented reality promotes an…
Augmented Reality is something that has really taken off in the educational world as of late. There have been many who have tried to define exactly what Augmented Reality (AR) is. Is it just a fancy QR code? Can it really transform your student’s learning? What in the heck is AR? Our hope with this…
This week we started our first project. As you can tell from my last post (if you had a chance to read it), this week was kind of like our Genesis. It was us starting over. It was me starting again. I feel like I’m hitting my groove, I feel like I’m in my element…..to…
