Instructional Materials & How-Tos

Advice from my journey:

• Due to required curriculum, leverage opportunities to enhance and supplement learning.
• Look for connections to infuse creativity and collaboration for students. 
• Use resources and lesson designs others have created then adjust as needed.
• Build a network of like minded colleagues to collaborate with. 
• Plan with students. They have amazing ideas and imaginations! Ask what they want to create or build. Or what materials or supplies they think would support them. 
• Be patient, brave and flexible. The best laid plans don't always translate into successful learning.  
• Start somewhere. Find one opportunity to infuse art or engineering. Be playful and creative. Then find the next. Slowly, you will have transformed majority of your curriculum into hands-on, engaging and memorable learning.
