It's hard to think of a way to describe myself using only 160 characters, especially since I not only love using punctuation, but I also often overthink everyth
For my 2020 New Year’s Tech-resolution, I want to actually use Twitter during all the rest of the year when it’s not #FMSD12Days I’ve shared, learned, connected, collaborated, and used/seen many new tools in action. Now I just need to keep up with it! #Day12#Seeyounextyear
When planning a video of your students working on a project, do prep beforehand to protect student privacy: no student info on walls, papers, etc. Don’t use last names when speaking to students. Preview video before posting! #FMSD12Days#Day9

When I hear "STEAM" I change it in my head to "The 4 C's" & I try to give my students opportunities to collaborate, communicate, critically think, and be creative as often as I can. Sometimes you can do all 4 C's with little to no technology. #STEAM#Easy#Fun#FMSD12Days#Day4
This whole book (Readicide) is great, right from this page, the first of chapter 1! @Kellygallagher really gets it! All his books, Article of the Week & other resources on his website, etc. are fantastic. AND he's still in the classroom! #amazing#FMSD12Days#Day3#Booksnap
Represents animated classic Frosty the Snowman. Water bottle reminds us that soon the snow will melt back to liquid water. All good things must end. ELA standard: symbolism & theme. Science standard: states of matter. #interdisciplinary#FMSD12days#FM21steam
A man and wife are at a holiday work party, hoping to reconnect. When a group of bad guys crash the party, the man, who is an off-duty cop, single-handedly foils them and saves the day! #yippiekia#FMSD12Days
