We enjoyed a visit from my cousin today. He and his wife brought along his seeing eye dog, Rockne. My students showed so much compassion and were eager to talk with him. @fightblindness @jonathandixon80

My scars remind me I can do hard things. Not a day goes by I don’t notice them, but I know I am stronger because of them. #curemelanoma

My prayers are with the family & loved ones of 26-year-old Officer Dylan Harrison, who was ambushed & killed in a shooting early Saturday on his first day working with the Alamo Police Dept. in GA. He leaves behind his wife & 6-month-old son.

We tried a multiplication game I saw online. My class loved it! Draw a clock and put a factor in the middle. The class competes in teams to put the products around the outside edge. #multiplicationgames
