Began the last of this year’s 🧶 Knitting Enrichment Lab as hybrid. Love how Owl Labs Meeting 🦉 connects Ss online to Ss in the room + my OKIOLABS👌 to model. Knitting isn’t just a great hobby but help practice computational thinking. Bonus: got to wear the sweater I made!

A little surprised when Ss asked “who is your favorite character?” You mean in the originals, the prequels, the new ones, the shows? I only get one?!? While I love Yodito, I think R2D2 takes it #May4thBeWithYou

Need something after state testing? I used ChatGPT to make quick(er) work on an end of the year breakout. ChatGPT created the scenario & turned the chapter summary into a short reading. I created a Form w/CFU ?s & clues to complete it. Ss had a blast working in groups to solve!

Celebrating Ss for their learning and growth is my favorite 🤩 End of the year awards🏆 were a hit!

First day of @UCLAHGP Themes in World History: Power & Democracy. Lots of great discussion about what a revolution is and how that interplays with types of power, plus the focus on the MX Rev. Got me thinking about adding to Kathryn Greene awesome lesson (aptly reshared today) 🤓

First week of the 2023-2024 school year ✅ It’s always a whirlwind but I loved returning to campus upgrades, seeing colleagues, and all my students! So pound of what we’re building! Jackrabbits are better, smarter, and stronger every year!
