I am starting this blog to be a better and more effective communicator to those teachers and strategists with whom I work. In my recent experience as an elementary Math and Science teacher as well as a campus Math/Science strategist, I understand the constraints that classroom teachers are under with respect to time for professional growth and networking. My hope is that this blog will become a centralized place to which I might be able to direct teachers and strategists in order to address particular concerns or interests.
I am learning that teachers and strategists have more in common than not, and that we can all benefit from the communication. My goal is to actively pursue and share my thoughts on relevant and thought provoking professional books and articles that may benefit teachers. I will also consistently look for and highlight good instructional practices that may help others. But most importantly, my goal will be to provide a place where teachers and strategists can meet and share ideas that will in the end lead to stronger math students.
