Last week, Gizmodo published a story on tardigrades and how they're sure to inherit the earth. These micro-animals can withstand radiation, total dehydration, freezing, "the vacuum of space, and even the intense pressure found at the bottom of the Marianas Trench." Oh, and they've also survived five mass extinctions. BONUS Cross-Stitch Pattern!

This means they are more relaxed and they can more easily acquire new language. Students are invested during games. Even if their main focus is winning, we get increased focus and engagement, which is a win for us. Games create good vibes. When we add that element of fun and competition, we trigger the 'happy emotions' in our students and create good feelings about coming to class. Most games naturally involve language. Sometimes activities can
I came home from school yesterday and cried. And not because the end of the year is so overwhelming, busy, and exhausting...{although that may be where part of the tears are coming from. JK! #AmIJustKiddingThough??} But because I’m going to miss my kids SO much. For 180 school days, 23 of my third grade students and I have laughed, cried, worked hard, learned so many new things together, and have built some really amazing relationships with one another. I’ve watched them grow not only as readers and mathematicians, but in their growth mindset, their confidence and in their character. We

Confronting the end of the world through a feminist lens, the play – which premiered as the season opener of theatre Sala Beckett, Barcelona – comprises several protagonists and multiple viewpoints, not to mention an equally as rapid and apocalyptic campaign designed by Codea Studio.

We started off our second day in Portugal driving to Portimao for a fun boat trip through the caves in the area, but as we were driving there, the heavens opened and the trip was called off. We didn’t really know what to do, as it was almost lunch time at this point, so all the other trips that we wanted to do had already left for the day. We did a quick google and decided to head to Sagres – one of the most southern points of Portuguese mainland. We didn’t expect much, and thought we’d do a quick stop there and see where else we’d end up along the way. But we got there and ended up spending the entire day exploring the area! It’s stunning and there’s SO much to see and do in the small area, that we actually ran out of time to see everything that we wanted before the sun set!
