This all might seem trivial, teaching and education matter to me. I will continue to show up in every capacity, but what I canโt do is sit back and do nothing as people try to discredit our profession. We are doing the absolute best that we can.
I had one of the best teaching days yesterday only for it to ruined at the end because someone wants me fired and continues to try to slander my reputation.
The kids, without a doubt, are what keep me in this profession. Back in April, I moved to Elkton, and who helped me move? Who played games in my backyard and ate pizza? My kids. I am, wholeheartedly and proudly, Elkton now.

Q4 A: I'm always looking for inspiration. Whenever I find myself feeling that sense of wonder, I think, "How can I recreate this in my classroom?" Recently, I played in Backyard Olympics, and now I have tons of ideas for games in the classroom! #tlap
Q3 A: I often look at the UDL guidelines for recommendations and ideas for providing more choice in both how students learn and how they demonstrate their learning. #tlap
Q2 A: I love sparking students' curiosity with the first slide on the board. When they walk in, they naturally look to the board area. How can you use that to capitalize on their curiosity? #tlap
