I facilitated a lovely Science #GameJam at Math for America last night with my Quest to Learn colleague Theresa Stanley. We played a game by the former Institute of Play called 'Metric Mystery' and a #Codenames adaptation by yours truly. #gamebasedlearning #MfAProud #gbl #games

Today’s beauty-I love co-facilitating the Math for America “Teacher Leadership for Impactful School Change” mini-course. We had session #2 tonight. If we truly want to transform our schools and make our students’ time in schools life-affirming, we need teacher leadership now.
