Creating our Future
Helped to create our future. Today: math and language.
An Inclusive Place
Spent my afternoon in an inclusive place.
View from a Basement Classroom
Looked out the window of a basement classroom.
Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication, Division
Valentine’s Day candy sustained me as I did things with fractions I have not done in living memory.
Wednesday Route
Walked across two interstates (94 and 35W), as I do most Wednesdays.
Focusing on What I Can Do
Simultaneously tutored two students: one about fractions, the other GED English. This felt so much better than thoughts of the politicians and entertainers who are failing us.
GED Preparation
Poked dormant parts of my brain, tutoring GED preparation.
Dreaming
Sometimes, on Wednesday afternoons, I face big questions with simple answers in a place where the American Dream lives.
Prohibited Words
I heard no prohibited words this morning as I helped students to grapple with English.
