Elementary school science teacher dives in to paper making in hope of teaching her students about technology and self respect through art and craft. We spent the morning drying work from the previous day and forming as many sheets as possible before lunch. TIme after lunch was devoted to cleaning up. I enjoyed seeing the inner bark of mulberry turn into paper. I enjoyed turning the mulberry bark into paper with my own hands.

It is better to travel well than to arrive. I am embarking on a road trip from Boston, MA to New Orleans, LA. I am a 36 year old single mother and a high school teacher in Boston. Saturday, August 17, 2013. Our last two days in NOLA have been spent exploring the city and visiting some popular sites, like the Aquarium! The French market is the oldest open market in the US! .

Saturday, September 14, 2013. Also, a huge THANK YOU to Fund for Teachers. For financially supporting this professional development experience. I am a better science educator as a result of this trip, and I look forward to brining everything I have learned to my students and colleagues in the Boston Public Schools. My second school visit was to Montfort Junior School. This post has a lot of photos to document my school visit.
