📚 Away from the Den today at a Textbook Vendor Fair. This is all about opportunity cost: investing time now = stronger returns for my cubs later. The cubs are running the Den and sharpening their claws for their upcoming assessment. 🦁 #Economics #Education #Leadership #Teach

🦁 The cubs had an assessment today. Just like in Economics, data drives decisions. Assessment results = the data I need to adjust lessons, maximize growth, and allocate teaching “resources” where they matter most. #Education #Economics #DataDriven #TeacherLife

🚨 New Unit Alert 🚨 The Den is stepping into Unit 2: Supply & Demand🦁📊 Markets move, choices shift, and equilibrium is where the magic happens. The cubs are ready to trade effort for knowledge and the returns will be exponential. #APMicro #Economics #TeacherLife

Some of my students think I may do too much. But, every late night plan, every extra activity, every push for excellence is because I care. The Den deserves nothing less than 100 percent. #TeacherLife #TheDen #APMicro

New unit. Fresh start. 📚💡 We’re leaving old habits behind and building stronger ones in The Den. Start strong so we can finish even stronger because in Econ, practice makes perfect. 🦁📊 #APMicro #TheDen #Economics #TeacherLife

Midweek Wisdom 🦁📚 Economics 101: Scarcity means limited resources versus unlimited wants. I have 1 pack of fruit snacks and a room of hungry students. Scarcity forces choices. Add incentives (finish work first) and effort rises. #LyonsDen #WisdomWednesday

Canes, cardigans, & curlers met pacifiers, strollers, & sippy cups. The Lyons Den showed up across generations. In Econ that’s human capital at its endpoints - skills just starting or skills already cashed out. Spirit capital? Always compounding #LHHS #Homecoming #LyonsDen
