@Avis Your car rental experience today was horrendous. My car reservation was not ready despite how eager you were to take my money back in April for today’s reservation. I hope you can work on guaranteeing reservations in the future as our previous experience with you was great.

6th grade AMP dove into inquiry today by trying to find the area of composite shapes using tangrams. #ampRICE @conocophillips @RiceU_STEM

Constructing and deconstructing tangrams. #ampRICE @conocophillips @RiceU_STEM

Sometimes you have to relinquish a little control to let inquiry naturally take the wheel. #ampRICE @conocophillips @RiceU_STEM

Observing before learning vocabulary gives students context. #ampRICE @conocophillips @RiceU_STEM

Sometimes you need to start your day with messy and playful learning. #ampRICE @conocophillips @RiceU_STEM

I love how open Minecraft is and how I want to start taking learning opportunities to the next level by having students create in a space full of possibility! #MinecraftEDU

Kicking off Summer Institute in style! Looking forward to working with teachers who are ready to dive in and get messy! @RiceU_STEM @conocophillips #ampRICE @OrbitAstros

Day 1 of #ETC22 had me thinking about the various ways I can help teachers become invisible during the learning process and help our kids learn to collaborate. @conniehamilton

When going through the lesson cycle have a driving question, give choice for students to learn that information using an eight minute timer, and make learning accessible to all through the use of images to break up content. Great work @Jenallee1! #jenallee #ETC22

About to enjoy Makers in the Middle at the TCEA convention in Dallas! #TCEA22

This is so important as relationships are the key not only in the classroom but also with each faculty member. We are all in this together!

I love my job. There is one thing I miss about being in the classroom though. Building relationships with students. It is my favorite part of education. #RelationshipsMatter

@RiceU_STEM @conocophillps Day three of the Summer Institute was a blast! If you are looking to rethink gallery walks or have your students present in a new way, you should check out Gathertown. #AMPRice

@RiceU_STEM @conocophillips Day 1 of the Applied Mathematics Program is always my favorite as we explore what inquiry is and what it isn’t!

@LFTechTeach I loved being able to enjoy your love of combining literature with digital citizenship which totally energized me! Your resources are fabulous and I’m excited to continue to learn from you. #etc21

@APHfortheBlind Thank you for sharing code jumper with me today and helping me think through how to provide access to all students! #etc21

@ms_zamora9 @MetzgysMagic I absolutely loved learning about how my obsessive love of conditional formatting could be taken to a level to make pixel art for students to practice their skills in a fun way! #etc21
