My first semester teaching f2f forced me to dress up, show up, be present & CARE every class day. Worth every dry cleaning bill 😉 (yes… I dress up to show up) Still #UnGrading

I ❤️@iamwandasykes - I believe Wanda Sykes can work w/ a designer to design women’s clothes aimed to conceal Esther. Obviously we can’t control her. She’s an escape artist. 🤣 BTW - My Esther loves potato chips, pasta & cheese. What does your Esther like? #Menopause #WandaSykes

No matter how many shiny new objects glimmer in EdTech conferences, in the end, it’s all about our students. Thank you @CalCompetes for the experience! Let’s make California Students sparkle.
