February 7, 2015: Champaign, IL. After eating at Biaggi's two weekends in a row (yikes!), I decided it was time to figure out how to make the best part of every meal. My boyfriend and I can easily eat two baskets of this bread before even ordering our meal, and it definitely rivals with Olive Garden's bread sticks. Luckily I was able to find the recipe online and tweak the toppings to exactly what we like best. It made a TON of the little "sticks" of focaccia, and it is even better the next day! Ingredients 1 & 1/4 Cup Whipped Mashed Potato's 3/4 Cup Whole Milk 1/2 Cup + 3 TBSP Chopped Red Onion 2 TSP Kosher Salt 1 TBSP Oil 1 TBSP + 1 TSP Yeast 1/2 Cup Warm Water 1 TBSP + 1TSP Olive Oil 3 Cups Flour Directions After making the mashed potato's (kind of a pain, but worth it in the end!), mix them in a bowl with the onions, salt, oil, and milk in a sauce pan on low heat. While this is warming up whisk together the yeast, warm water, and oil until the yeast is fully dissolved. Next, combine the yeast mixture, warm mashed potato mixture, and the flour in a large bowl and mix on medium speed for 3 minutes. Oil a baking sheet, and then spread the dough until it is about an inch thick. Next, spread oil across it and sprinkle with your favorite toppings. We used crushed basil, salt, garlic salt, and pepper. At Biaggi's they use crushed red pepper which gives it a little more of a kick! Lastly, bake on 350 for 10 minutes, rotate, and then bake for another 10 minutes or until golden brown.

Plates. A simple round surface on which we put food. An item so mundane, you'd probably think that someone's crazy if they said that they're entertained by them. Well, there are such people, and they're not as crazy as one might imagine because there is such a thing as entertaining plates, however rare the phenomenon may be.

A little bit of sass and class.

I hope this is one of the first posts you landed on in your search for how to teach variables to middle schoolers. Seriously. I really do. If you’ve been following me for more than a minute, you’ll remember I walked into an empty classroom my first year teaching. No resources, supplies, or curriculum. When I started teaching scientific inquiry, I stopped pretty quickly! I was overwhelmed. None of what I Googled made any sense! Research… and more research Teaching scientific inquiry is simple, yet complicated. As a new middle school teacher using Google and Pinterest to find content, I was struggling. Don’t get me wrong, I could find all of the worksheets and all of the resources where students had to identify variables in a specific scenario, but I could not find a definition simple enough to understand and communicate well. I swear I clicked on every link. I did my best to create a definition that mostly made sense and taught it. My students were SO confused. And like any good teacher, I researched more and retaught it. They were even more confused! To be honest, I confused myself too! And then it clicked! Clearly I was doing […]

I love middle school. But they think so quickly that they don’t necessarily think about what they are thinking! In science specifically, they have to know the difference between an observation and an inference. Their observations lead to their inferences and generally serve as evidence for their inferences. To introduce this idea, I give them that “angry teacher” stance and eyes and ask them how I am feeling. Without fail, they tell me that I’m mad, angry, upset, that they want to run away and hide (HAHA!!)… and a few will say my arms are crossed or I’m not smiling, but usually not without some prompting asking them how they know I’m angry. They can tell you clearly that I’m upset, but I need them to break it down and use their observations as evidence for their inferences. Keeping this in mind, we added a page in our notebooks differentiating between an observation and an inference. These notes are quick, simple, and to the point. I love their notebooks because it means they have the information in their possession for the rest of the year! Next, I told them that I took a trip this summer with NASA to another […]
