Professional Development: Collaborating and Taking Action!
I believe in sharing. Especially when it means it is going to help a student or a teacher feel more successful. Over the past several years I've been blessed enough to share and collaborate with other teachers around the world (quite literally IN some countries- Sweden, Japan, China, and Turkey). From magazines, newspaper, radio, to Scholastic...here are a few that give a glimpse of my classroom and have been used to help other teachers around the word. Some publishing locations include:
