...An avid reader all my life and an enthusiastic life-long learner, I love helping students discover their own strengths while helping them to meet challenges and overcome obstacles.Math doesn't have to be mysterious. It doesn't have to be confusing and stressful. As an elementary teacher, I looked for ways to make math fun, interesting, and relevant for my students.

...I also like to make sure that students understand the importance of what they are learning prior to teaching the lesson. I think this helps them see that the information they are learning is useful in their future and it makes them take learning a lot more seriously. I also enjoy having some fun while teaching to make lessons more creative and interesting to my students.

The FCC initiated a proceeding March 29 to assess the communications spectrum requirements of emergency personnel and first responders.
The commission wants input on the need for a nationwide interoperable broadband mobile communications network and any other issue related to the allocation of spectrum for use by emergency first responders.
Under the Intelligence Reform and Terrorism Prevention Act of 2004, the FCC is required to study the short-term and long-term spectrum needs of emergency response providers and report its findings to Congress by Dec. 17. The call for comments is intended to provide information for that report.
The commission would also like information about:
While the call for comments pertains to emergency responders, broadcasters as licensed frequency users have been and are now being impacted by past commission initiatives to provide adequate, interference-free spectrum for emergency first responders. The current 2GHz BAS re-banding process is a result of such efforts.
Comments should be filed with the commission by April 28.
For more information, visit www.fcc.gov.

Socolovich was demoted to Triple-A Memphis on Sunday.
The Cardinals were in need of a spot on the 25-man roster for Sunday's starter, Mike Mayers, and Socolovich appears to be the odd man out. Given that it's a spot start for Mayers, it's quite possible Socolovich's trip to the minors will be a short one.
Morrison (wrist) is out of the lineup Sunday against the Athletics, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
The Rays will hold Morrison out for his sixth straight game while he battles a right wrist injury, enabling Steve Pearce to slot in at first base. With Tampa off the schedule Monday, Morrison will have a little extra time to help with his recovery, but it's still uncertain if he'll be available for Tuesday's series opener with the Dodgers.
Maybin is out of the lineup Sunday against the White Sox.
Maybin was actually on the field earlier in the day for when the Tigers and White Sox resumed play of Saturday's game, which was postponed with the score tied in the ninth inning due to rain. He officially finished that contest with two hits, two runs and two stolen bases across his four at-bats, marking another excellent performance for the outfielder. He'll be rewarded with a rest for Sunday's originally scheduled game, but could still be used a pinch-hitter or defensive replacement.
McCann will start at catcher Sunday against the White Sox and bat eighth in the lineup.
Though McCann is behind the plate for Sunday's game, he had sat out the previous three contests in favor of Jarrod Saltalamacchia. McCann has followed up a promising rookie year with a dud of season in 2016, slashing just .197/.245/.303 across 205 plate appearances. Until he turns a corner offensively, he may have to settle for a timeshare at catcher with Saltalamacchia.
Saltalamacchia is out of the lineup Sunday against the White Sox.
Saltalamacchia was behind the plate when the Tigers and White Sox resumed Saturday's suspended game earlier Sunday, but he'll have off for the initially scheduled contest. James McCann steps in to spell Saltalamacchia, who had started the previous three games behind the plate.

Hillary wants you to 'Trump Yourself'.
But you have to allow access to your FB setup.
Time: An Unhinged Republican Convention and the Nation's Greatest Test.
Interesting to get Klein's view. Esp. on the Benghazi ordeal - which echoes my own take.
JAMA: United States Health Care Reform - Progress to Date and Next Steps.
"The law has also greatly improved health insurance coverage for people who already had it." An outright lie, in my own case. Sure, caps and preexisting conditions are gone. But I had to go from a $500 deductible to a $5,000 deductible to maintain my near-identical monthly payment. My wallet is not a fan.
BillMoyers: Disappointed By the Democratic Party Platform? Follow the Money.
"The Sanders campaign has announced it will not further contest platform planks, but as a previous report by In These Times showed, the presence of superdelegates at the convention could still water down the platform, as it has in the past. Progressives should keep up the pressure until then."
Politico: Dead Heat In Ohio.
Note - barring some crisis or a great debate performance - this is the only poll bump he can expect between now and November.
Recode: Entrepreneur and investor Gary Vaynerchuk 'cannot wait' for the startup armageddon.
"I'm not going to get a job! I've got an idea!" Oh yeah. BOINGGGGGG.
Mashable: Brits not happy about advice to take vitamin D supplements.
Silly. Take it. Esp. if you're male and advancing in years. Your weight will be lower, your T levels slightly higher, your mood better. Saves me from the depths of SAD every winter, too.
Ted Cruz showed guts last night.
He deserves my commendation. Important to remember, however ... even a snake has a backbone. It's only in this election season that backbone has become rare. If Trump loses in November, Cruz will be the GOP standard bearer into the future.
Later: HAH.
Even later: "... if you go slander and attack Heidi I am nonetheless going to come like a servile puppy dog and say thank you very much for maligning my wife and maligning my father." Actions and statements have consequences. Good.
Macworld: LiquidText for iPad review: All you need for deep research projects.
This looks like something we expected the iPad to offer, years ago. I'll have to try it out.
CBSNews: California's Obamacare premium sticker shock.
"Come this fall's open-enrollment period, which starts just a week before the election, exchange customers can switch to a cheaper plan." Yeah, the supporters of the ACA keep pushing this. Look at the copays, the deductibles. Insta-bankruptcy if you get seriously ill. Pushing 'affordable health care' into science fiction territory. It's like using fix-a-flat on a tire; works, but it's not equal to a functioning patched tire.
FishbowlNY: The Atlantic Prints 25,000 Additional Copies of July/August Issue.
"The issue is on pace to be The Atlantic's best-selling edition since 2008."
MessyNessyChic: Honeymooning on the Battlefields of WWII.
Bit weird, but fascinating from our time-perspective.
Gawker: Video Shows Unarmed Black Man Pleading With Arms Raised Before Getting Shot by Police.
Bohemian Guitars.
Oil can guitars, that is.
Techdirt: Nick Denton Bucks The Trend Du Jour, Thinks News Comments Are Worth Saving.
"Throwing out the entire concept of on-site comments because a jackass said something mean or pointed out you were wrong about something has never been much of a solution." Um, been saying this for a decade at least.
Texas Observer: The GOP is Gaslighting America — on National Television.
Preach it, girl. Damned straight. The Tea Party movement took the gloves off originally. This is just the logical extension.
'Oh the Paine, the Paine.' We need you more than ever.
"When it can be said by any country in the world, my poor are happy, neither ignorance nor distress is to be found among them, my jails are empty of prisoners, my streets of beggars, the aged are not in want, the taxes are not oppressive, the rational world is my friend because I am the friend of happiness. When these things can be said, then may that country boast its constitution and government. Independence is my happiness, the world is my country and my religion is to do good."
― Thomas Paine, Rights of Man
Randall Made Knives.
New Scientist: Let's ditch the idea that only home-cooked food is good for kids.
"... home-made meals based on 408 bestselling cookbook recipes for infants and young children are not always healthier than ready meals and convenience products. In fact, on many measures they seemed less healthy: they tended to have a lower vegetable variety per meal and were more likely to exceed maximum recommendations for energy and fat content." I used to enjoy Campbell's chicken noodle soup as a kid, eventually making my own Mrs. Grass' (with the oil/egg). I mean, come on. Lighten up. You'd think we were talking about infant formula (ducking swiftly) ...
Mashable: Birkenstock will pull its shoes from Amazon over counterfeit sellers.
Counterfeits have become a HUGE issue for sellers using Amazon. Huge. Buyer beware. At least there's a return policy.
SciAm: Human Brain Mapped in Unprecedented Detail.
"Yet until now, most such maps have been based on a single type of measurement. That can provide an incomplete or even misleading view of the brain's inner workings ..."
Albuquerque Journal: Man with BB gun, scope won't face charges, police say.
"A responding field officer went into a nearby building and saw the man with a rifle, scope and bipod. The rifle was pointed north down University Boulevard." What an idiot.
PS Mag: How the Recent Shootings in Dallas and Baton Rouge Will Impact Law and Order Policing.
"Americans are perpetually convinced that crime is on the rise, despite the fact that the crime rate has declined steadily over the last 25 years."
Slate: Trump's wall would hurt wildlife and halt science at the border.
Let's put this to bed once and for all. There will be no wall. Perhaps an invigorated fence, but there will be no wall. A wall vs. a fence requires much more material. How much more? I believe I've posted before - concrete calculators are available on the web. An 18' high by 4' thick by 1 mile long chunk of wall would be ~14,000 cubic yards of concrete. The entire border is 5,520 miles. That's nearly 80 million cubic yards of concrete, longer than the Great Wall of China (built of brick-faced rammed earth). That wall didn't keep out the hordes either.
The fact that Slate or any other media source is reporting on 'the wall' as if it is a serious consideration, is a breach of journalistic ethics if you ask me. As a joke only. A piece of idiotic tomfoolery.
But this is how media sources keep clickthroughs maxed, and make the contest more of a horserace (as I projected months ago).
[#ignoretrump. Thistles can't grow where roses do. Use it - point to cat photos if you want. Anything but the blowhard.]

Carasmark is a wonderful charity! They reach out to the community in so many ways, and make it really easy to get involved as a volunteer.
I know the founder personally, and I have loved being able to participate in just a little of what Shannon does for the community!
Carasmark is a small organization with big heart, goals, and action.
The work that Carasmark does makes differences in individual lives by recognizing needs and coming along side individuals as well as organizations to meet those needs and invest in community in humble, and practical ways.
My family has had a great experience with Carasmark over the years. We've participated in fundraisers to raise money for their backpack project and food drives to supply kids in need with food. We highly recommend Carasmark and the work they do!
I first heard about Carasmark during the summer of 2013, and I was excited to volunteer for such a terrific cause! Shannon and her team give so much to the community…I am particularly impressed with the aid they give to inner city kids and schools. Way to go!! Keep up the great work!
Carasmark is an amazing organization created by amazing people. The work behind Carasmark is crucial and important to changing the lives of children and families in need. Carasmark is an organization centered around compassion, authenticity, and love. I fully support the message this beautiful organization stands for and its' goal to change lives one at a time.
I have been a volunteer/donor with Carasmark for a few years and I love that Carasmark is passionate and practical. It is making a difference locally, close to home with hot meals or backpacks stocked with school supplies. This type of service is essential in meeting the immediate needs of the community in a very real way. I am happy to support Carasmark and enjoy volunteering to help them make a difference.
I have volunteered several times for Carasmark and every time am excited by the good work that I see it doing in the daily lives of children and parents. In particular, I have most often assisted with the backpack program which provides kids with the necessary supplies for school that they would be unable to have otherwise. I love this program because it not only provides for these kids in school, but helps the parents to know that their children will be prepared for the school year even when they are unable to provide that for them. I think Carasmark does a great job of quantifiably helping the lives of children, and I look forward to continuing to help the great work it will continue to do in the future.
Carasmark is a charity that seeks to encourage families by meeting practical needs. Two of the ongoing efforts that have inspired hope in communities with generally lower SES in the Delaware area are the backpack project and the healthy meals program. These two initiatives extend helpful resources to families in need; these programs also extend an opportunity for ongoing relationship with Carasmark initiatives and programs associated with other affiliated non-profits in the area. Carasmark hosts many events that allow community members to get involved in supporting such wonderful efforts to make a positive differences in others' lives.

On his return flight from South Korea, Pope Francis said that he hoped to visit China soon, an act which would be the first time any Pope traveled to that country.
Pope Francis spoke at an assembly of over 6,000 Asian Catholics while he was in South Korea, addressing a number of issues that Catholics in those countries have.

LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - As if sowing the seeds for such a visit, while the Pope was on his way home from South Korea and in Chinese airspace he sent greetings to Chinese President Xi Jinping.
Heed the call! End world hunger through "prayer and action."
"You ask me if I have a desire to go to China? Certainly, tomorrow. Yes," he said during a mid-flight press conference.
These are the first comments Francis has made in regards to China's harsh restrictions on Christianity, and during the conference Francis alluded to the Vatican's position in negotiating with Beijing.
"We respect the Chinese people. The Church only asks for freedom for its job, its work - no other condition," he said.
Father Federico Lombardi, a Vatican Spokesman, could not confirm or comment on reports that Francis had met with Chinese officials in June.
During the South Korean visit, the Pope did decline to answer a question posed by a young man from Hong Kong who asked about China's harsh regulations.
"Obviously the people in China are in the heart and mind of the pope," Lombardi said.
"Returning to Rome after my visit to Korea, I wish to renew to Your Excellency and your fellow citizens the assurance of my best wishes, as I invoke divine blessings upon your land," the Pope's message said during his August 18 flight.
An event that received much less attention was the Pope's blessing of a Chinese martyr during a beatification mass in downtown Seoul on August 16.
Father James Zhou Wen-mo of Suzhou, near Shanghai, was beheaded because of his faith in 1801, less than seven years after he first entered Korea as a Catholic missionary.
