Students were able to explore the joy of art & self-expression through learning the various concepts of artistic symbolism and identity, & enhance their technical proficiency through the usage of the "markup" tool in the photos app. Thanks to Ms. Durczak for having the iCoaches !

Then the guilt of being a mother had me questioning if this was even possible. In the end I realized this was a once in a lifetime opportunity to see educational settings through a different lens. I have gotten to know my classmates virtually & look forward to seeing where . .

I have always enjoyed going to school & learning as much as I can about the 🌎around me. In September I came across this amazing opportunity to study abroad in Northern Ireland. I attempted scholarships & various opportunities to get financial assistance that made me doubt going.

Shout out to @HolaMsLopez who challenges me to step out of my content knowledge area & always including me in conversations. I love being a co-Math Coach especially when these innovative lessons are in Spanish. #d100inspires #instructionalcoaches #cocoaching

Thank you @esquivel_gifted for this activity. My family created before implementing in my district. For my Oakwood Bears who are 3/6/40 & using chromebooks, I am a proud Instructional Coach as they used Keynote for the first time with ease! #applekeynote #sd113a #d100inspires
