It's hard not to think you're getting old when you have three former middle school students sitting next to you at a professional development session. Great humans. Incredible teachers.

I finally did it! I made it on ESPN!

Once upon a time, I would've hoped it would've been for some athletic feat (unofficially Nebraska high school football's all-time leading Asian-born rusher or best looking triple jumper), but I'll take what I can get. ☺️

Back home, going through my old stuff. My son doesn’t understand how awesome he’d be if he brought this back to the city.

A student made these cutting boards "with your name in Ariel font." Another student said, "No! Use comic sans!" My hatred for comic sans is well documented. While this is one of the coolest student Xmas gifts and objectively hilarious, a burning white hatred will seethe through me when I use it.

Finishing up the semester, but still doing activities relevant to the curriculum. Students describe how to draw an object to their partner without the partner seeing the drawing. They also can’t watch what the other is drawing. Love the conversations after the reveal.

Looks like a Telestrations kinda night.
