Rachel's Reflections

Well, here it is, the official launch of my blog! I was so incredibly inspired when going to the TPT conference this summer that I made a goal for myself to get this thing up and running. A HUGE thank you to Honey Bunch Blog Design for their amazing work and the quickness with which this was all put together!

I am very excited about the upcoming week! I am going to Boston to attend the first ever Math Plus conference hosted by one of my total faves, Greg Tang! I call him my math  boyfriend! Hehe! He is an amazing thinker and the strategies that he shares just make so much sense. I know that if someone had taught me strategies such as those he shares, I would have had a heck of a lot more fun in math classes in high school and college. I have learned so much from him already, but know I will learn even more in the coming week. I can't wait to share it with teachers! What educators are an inspiration to you?

I am in Arizona, and if you are too, you know that we are having a teacher shortage. Where are you located and is your state experiencing the same thing? I would love to hear from you!
