When you give kids technology for the first time – the reaction – their faces light up. When they open their Chromebook for the first time it’s magic.
And it’s just fun! Who doesn’t want glowing bees? You can code them, and they’re Bluetooth. They are fun, but at the same time we can say, ‘How do we bring this into the curriculum.’
What do you do outside of the classroom?
I have a chocolate lab named Beau who takes over my life. I spend time with him. I am an active Yogi. I go to yoga as much as I can. It helps me keep my zen. And I teach mindfulness and meditation here every morning.
It makes for a good work-life balance, it’s an ebb and flow.
