Less than an hour into our visit at Iowa BIG & already so inspired. Kicked it off with students talking about what BIG means to them. Our BPS team is fortunate to have this opportunity. @InnovatorPat @daleh53 @AaronPreabtBPS @daffheid @dr_ben_johnson @T1cubed #learnbps

#IowaBig teachers stressed that at this school behaviorism is the last go to... they work hard to cultivate an internal locus of control. #learnbps

Did you know that playing board games stimulates the area of the brain responsible for complex thought and memory formation? Thanks @gameofkittens for “You’ve Got Crabs”! Legacy students are having a blast! #learnbps #ndlibchat
