It’s time for a little Art Deco as I teach my 3rd graders about A Century of Progress, Chicago’s 2nd World’s Fair 1933-1934! #d181proud @CCSD181 @elmd181 #istecert

It's time to travel back in time to the beginnings of Chicago with my 3rd grade students for our Chicago History unit! #d181proud @CCSD181 @elmd181 #ISTEcert #IDEAiste

I got a special treat today seeing one of my 3rd grade students finding my mystery location on the globe, and discovering this is the city where she was born! We are a global community! #d181proud @CCSD181 @elmd181 #IDEAiste #istecert

"Where in the World is Mrs. Petersen?" was definitely a hit with D181 3rd graders. We traveled from IL to OK to NM, and finally to my mystery destination of the Grand Canyon! Ss also explored the canyon using Google Expeditions. #d181proud @CCSD181 @elmd181 #istecert #IDEAiste

So excited to officially advance to the "portfolio round" of my ISTE certification process. This has truly been a journey of reflection and growth of my instructional practice with an amazing cohort of peers! We've got this! #IDEAiste #istecert #d181proud #d181techconnect
