It's going to be an exciting week! If you are going to be at VASSP in Williamsburg or VCTM in Petersburg, let's meet up. I'll be presenting at both conferences and would love to see you. Let me know if you are attending and/or presenting. #ChangeTheStory#FindingThroughlines
Today a student told me I was a good teacher. When I asked why, he said, “You have good energy, and I can tell you enjoy what you do.”
Wow. That one landed.
Our work is much more than teaching content. It’s about showing up in ways that lift students and educators around us.
Ever feel like students are just collecting a "folder of facts" but missing the story that connects them?
We used the Finding Throughlines routine to look at 4 different animals.
How do you help your students see the "Big Picture"? Put it in the comments! 👇
Spending today reflecting on the incredible work happening in classrooms. I feel fortunate that my role allows me to partner with educators and support students in taking ownership of their learning. Here are a few pics from this week to celebrate.

Here’s the group photo (minus our virtual folks!) of the awesome Alleghany Highlands math educators digging into #MathWorkshop for their book study. Their students are lucky to have them, and I’m grateful to be part of their journey.

The Prince Edward math teachers dug into formative assessments and how to create immediate, flexible small groups that move learning.
Teachers practiced:
- Surfacing student thinking quickly
- Identifying misconceptions on the spot
#FormativeAssessment#ChangeTheStory
We believe in building relationships, rolling up our sleeves, and doing the hard work alongside our partners.
It’s a privilege to do this work with you. Let’s keep moving the needle.
