Welcome back! I hope you had a great break and are feeling rested, relaxed and recharged! I loved having time to read and write this Spring Break and was reminded of Ramsey Musallum's TED Talk where he shared his three rules to spark learning: curiosity comes first, embrace the mess, and practice reflection. These are things that I think make Star amazing! Petra and I were feeling curious and took a few roadtrips to visit several schools over the break and we got some great ideas!

Check out Petra's posts on her blog-- Girls Can (A STEAM powered post) and Choice Seating: Genius or Chaos? , inspired by the school visits. If you haven't tried blogging personally, it's a great way to think out loud and reflect on life and learning. Congrats, Petra on these two great posts! What did you do over Spring Break? Maybe you could blog about it! Have a fabulous week!
