My adventure has begun here in Cullowhee, NC! The first day of NCCATs and I have already met some awesome people, and broke a record for fastest marble transfer! Gooooo Team Student Discovery!!! As I listen and watch those around me I realize how truly blessed I am to get to be a part of this great collaboration between my fellow teachers and myself.  I am hoping to be able to bring back new game changing curriculum to my classroom and my school! I am excited by everyone’s enthusiasm, and believe that we are on the cusp of doing something great.  I hope that I can bring back this energy and excitement to my peers at Burgaw Middle School, and that it influences how our students learn about science around them.
