Thank you @NASA_Wallops for the awesome virtual field trip! It was so great to get "outside" our classroom during this pandemic and the kids LOVED learning about future missions to the moon and Mars!

This family has a solution for winter break boredom 😂

As a teacher and a mom, she gets how challenging it can be to have kids stuck at home. She shares fun enrichment ideas on Eyewitness News This Morning! #kwch

@mrscarolnelson @ncooper_edu So great talking to you @mrscarolnelson! I love how you pursue relevant questions that no one has an easy answer to. THAT is the sign of a true innovator! You inspire me!

Hey teacher friends, I need all your ideas for soft-start morning stations for 6th grade in the areas of critical thinking, collab, art, communication, community service, and problem solving. We have 30 min four days per week. #ksedchat #STEMeducation

Got to spend some time visiting early childhood programs in Asuncion today. LOVE all the sensory and play-based education with the bilingual focus! #ECE #earlyed #edchat

I LOVE this picture of my grandpa and one of his students who said he was motivated to graduate and went on to own his own business because my grandpa told him to "get his act together and finish something" 😂 #thatsmygrandpa #generationalteacher

2nd grade boy in a Redesign school this week working furiously on research & writing. Me "Wow, you are really working hard." Him "This is my passion project and there are only 8 days of school left to get it done!" Is that how your students end the school year? @KSDEredesign

@mrs_smoke @SkypeClassroom @SFCrew He was a random find on Skype in the Classroom, and it went perfectly with our ecology project!

[Maria (Loewen) Rozendaal @MariaELoewen]

So much fun Skyping with Ranger Dan from the Point Lobos kelp forest today! It's not every day the class gets to see the ocean from a camera on a kayak! @SkypeClassroom #edtech @SFcrew

Road trips with @misszeisler 😂 I think those bowling balls gave us extra traction on the snow! Can't wait to hear about the magic she's making with this! #KEEN19 #PBL
