@spencerideas A child fell asleep reading in my class yesterday and when I went to check in on him he told me “Miss, I Halloweened too hard.”

My husband doesn’t appreciate this as much as my students would... #springbreak2019

Book 4: my favorite line “ideas are not “out there” waiting to be discovered, but are tools-like forks and knives and microchips-that people devise to cope with the world in which they find themselves...their survival depends not on their immutability but on their adaptability.”

Made ice cream with one of my favorite students today. I didn’t know we could do that but we discovered it together!

My students continue to blow me away... we took on the L today as we looked, listened and learned about issues they cared about. I asked “what challenges do people experiencing this face?” #launchcycle @spencerideas

Couldn’t stop reading this one last night! 2/2

[Teri Hurtuk @TeriHurtuk]

I challenged my students to keep track of all the books they read in 2019. Then I agreed to do it too! I decided to start with my favorite author @NealShusterman 1/1

Top 3 presents ever received from students... when she told me this, I told her it was the nicest thing a student had ever said about my teaching 😁. This is going up in my room ASAP.

Look at all this beautiful mathematical thinking!

So what does gifted education mean anyway? AKA: what exactly do you do all day Teri? #gifted #gifteded #gt #giftedminds
