In March, I joined a Knowles Teachers senior fellow panel on teacher voice in policy.

Shared my experience with @teachplus.bsky.social & learned from others doing this work.

Teachers need to be part of policy decisions.

“PBL builds on the expertise teachers already bring.”

Focused this session on refining what teachers are already doing — not adding more. That’s what makes it sustainable.

Grateful to be learning alongside teachers this spring.

Not all high school programs translate to real classrooms.

Upstream Education has been one that does.

Simple tools, strong coaching, relevant for students, and actually sustainable for teachers.

One of the few programs I’d genuinely recommend.

Reflecting on my first time at @sxswedu.com

Grateful to attend and honored to serve as a mentor

Still thinking about:
• Cross-district math instruction conversations
• Mistake-making

And the need for stronger teacher voice in these spaces.

Leading PD through inquiry groups. Ts set goals, ask inquiry questions, collect data, & analyze it together using protocols & roles. We cycle through this work & share our learning at the end of the year.

What’s standing out is how invested folks are in growth and learning from each other. #edusky

I just started a term on the TCTM board. We kicked things off with our January board meeting.

TCTM’s goals focus on building interest in math, supporting math teaching, strengthening teacher prep, & connecting with NCTM and CAMT.

Excited to learn, connect, & grow. Ask me about getting involved.

Recently became a National Board Certified Teacher.

It feels like both a milestone & a responsibility. The process strengthened my reflection & reminded me that excellent teaching is never static. When teachers continue to grow, students benefit most.

Spent the day in a #PBL workshop with coworkers and teachers new to PBL. Reflecting on projects and planning was a good reminder that learning happens when we take time to pause and reflect together. #mtbos #edusky #teach180 #PBLChat

“When students move, think, and talk, the learning sticks.”

This chain rule scavenger hunt got students moving, discussing, and doing the math. Active learning doing exactly what it’s supposed to do.
