Energize Your Passion With New Experiences

Typically in my posts, I love to share out opportunities and resources for educators.  Having fellow educators do the same for me has led to some amazing and transformational experiences.

Maven Elementary Teachers' Summit

I want to continue sharing about engaging and inspiring STEM opportunities for educators to keep the learning and passion going in the classroom. I hope to promote a great experiences for educators and students.










NASA Microgravity University for Educators
My end goal for my career in education is to provide STEM opportunities for all students by inspiring educators. Many of the opportunities I have participated in have involved applications or proposals. These can be daunting but well worth the effort.










Makerspace
Other experiences are ones I have created myself for students and educators.  I was smart enough to join the school librarian on the makerspace she started for our school. She was inspired after attend an NCCE conference.











USPTO National Summer Teacher Institute
Other opportunities have required flexibility with last minute chances to participate.














Many of the conferences, whether presenting or attending, required grant writing. After you use the funds you also have then complete the grant reports.

There aren't any experiences that I felt were not worth the work I had to invest. Participant or provider, I have grown so much from the opportunities I have had the pleasure of being a part of.

What is your passion that needs some energizing? Is there something new you would like to bring into your classroom? Perhaps there's a training, in-person or online, that could help with that.










I didn't start as an Einstein Fellow in D.C. I started as a first year teacher who wanted to know more and bring more into my classroom. Getting to this point was a journey. Do what works for you but do it.
