Alaska kids love the outdoors. Thank you ASD for the loan on the bike wagon! We even had to do an emergency moose evacuation maneuver today. It's all good. The biking club was a huge success! @ASD_Info #biking #moose

I teach skills, not sports. Skills that can transfer to a variety of activities. Soccer? No, foot skills. Basketball? No, ball handling skills. Elementary teaches skills.

Q4 What things should teachers consider when using social media for professional purposes? #AkEdChat

@AndyHollemanAk We have a few in P.E.

So, on this question in particular, it seems that old fashioned message boards don't show up that often. But I still use them a lot in other venues....boat issues, motorcycles, photography, RV's..... Are there any people use for education? #AkEdChat

@AnyaToole I’m on the same page Anya. #AKEdChat

@SyrahPetersen A great place for ideas, following trends, and connecting with other professionals from around the world. #AKEdChat
