Five for Friday....SDE conference fun!

I have spent all this week in Las Vegas learning and growing as an educator.  I have been inspired by some amazing teachers and I have stepped out of my comfort zone just a little bit and it has WONDERFUL!!

I wanted to share what I have learned so I am hooking up with Doddle Bugs Teaching and Five For Friday to share my fun.

First, I came to the SDE I Teach conferences to connect with teachers I have admired through their blogs, TpT stores, and following them on social media.  I loved giving hugs and getting hugs and I want you to know that these amazing teachers are real people.  They are the kindest and sweetest and smartest people I know.  I learn so much!!

 Second, I came to learn.  I attended so many classes.  I loved every one and learned something new each time.  It will take me all summer to really process everything that is swirling through my brain...but I know we will be doing more stem challenges (I attended two STEM workshops, one by Brooke Brown and one by Sandi Reyes).  I have some GREAT ideas for fitting it all in and engage my students.  We will be singing more (Thanks Debbie Clement) and making rekenreks (Thanks Deedee Wills).


Third, I came to share my passion....outdoor learning!  This was my first time presenting on such a large "stage".  I was scared, nervous, petrified, and excited beyond words!!  I loved it.  I loved sharing something so close to my heart.  I pitched my butterfly tent and we made pressed flower bookmarks (directions are here).  I promised my Kinder participants I would post the blackline master for the food chain activity.  You can find it here.

Fourth, I came to spend some time with my best friend.  I am lucky to have such a wonderful husband who loves me and supports me through all my crazy ideas.


Lastly, I sat by the pool and started to reflect over all the things I had learned over these last five days and this quote from Dave Burgess jumped out at me.  If you have never heard of him, you need to pick up his book Teach Like a PIRATE.  It is inspiring!!

  5. Does your HP printer not work well? Well, you do not embarrass yourself as every problem brings the self-solution itself. In case your scanning and printing work disturbs without any hard glitches, then you can implement the right hierarchy to rectify this issue. But, sometimes problems become out of control, and taking the help of an HP Support representative offers you a sigh of relief. It would be good to reach out to a third party professional team to call them on the HP Printer Support number. Our service is available to you throughout the day.
    Frequently asked question (FAQ) of printer: How do I contact HP customer support?
    Thank You.

  6. You did an excellent job. You have a lot of really interesting topics on your website. My blog is titled Voiceover Words Per Minute: Choosing the Ideal Information Rate. Take a look at it. You might have a good idea of the intended length of your content, but how you get there is just as important as the destination. How well your listeners follow you depends on how many words per minute you use.
