Nearly two dozen staff dropped by before their school day began on Tuesday to visit with us. It is always a treat to meet the dedicated educators that have a passion to make a difference in the lives of Iowa students and thank them for their work!
The first classroom visit of the day was to Zeb Hubner’s 8th grade Social Studies room. I spoke to the students about my responsibilities as president of ISEA and challenged them to reach beyond the plans they are making for themselves. I shared that it is important to plan ahead for their educational years beyond high school, but there will be opportunities that arise that they might not have planned for that they might consider.
The next classroom visit took us to the high school room of Pam Burke’s Spanish class. I shared with students the path of my career and as well as professional experiences.
We were next off to Ekstrand Elementary here in DeWitt where I would get to read to two different classrooms! We also had the chance to meet the building principal and many friendly staff members!
I read aloud to Mrs. McCulloh’s classroom here at Ekstrand Elementary. They were delightful youngsters that really got involved in the read aloud!
I have not had the chance to read aloud the book Probuditi! by Chris VanAllsburg for quite a while and today I had a few extra minutes in Ms. Chase’s 4th grade room. The class really seemed to enjoy it!
