We brought skates thinking we knew what we were doing. Biking up Twenty Mile to find all the good ice for skating. Turns out the good skating isn’t actually ON the river. The fat #biking was only a little sketchy. The landscapes were stunning. Classic #Alaska

Sometimes a dead plant can be the most beautiful part of the trail. Pretty sure this is a devils club bush covered in #hoarfrost Either way it was at the Glen Alps and captivated me on each pass as I checked out the newly groomed trails.

I brought nature journaling and bog walks into our weekly lessons and my #classroom. These are my nature journals from the workshop that I show my class every year before we make #student nature journals.

My last AK Geographic workshop was an eye opener as to how I can bring nature into everyday lessons!

Immigration is such a powerful message for kids to learn about!
Last year my class did an immigration reenactment. It was so enriching. They’re also always surprised when I tell them my grandparents were immigrant Jews fleeing the nazis.

A5. Perhaps the story of immigration. My ancestors were all migrants (from China, India and as far as Ireland). I would tell them the stories of how they arrived in Malaysia and brought their cultures, which eventually mixed. I would talk about places like Penang and Malacca. #traveladdictshistory
Q5. If you wanted to inspire a child to one day travel to a place for its history, which story would you tell and which place would it be?

A2 I learned about #Cambodia in a high school elective called genocide. We focused on Rwanda and the Khmer Rouge. It was absolutely appalling and eye opening. I decided NOT to visit the killing fields but rather gave lots of money to local guides in Angor Wat

Henry Box Brown was a slave that mailed himself to freedom! I teach 4th/5th grade US history and we talk about slavery a lot. Henry’s story is a lot less well known than say Harriet Tubman but showed incredible fortitude nonetheless

Q1. Introduce yourself and share a historical story or event you learned about at school that you found particularly fascinating or inspiring? What was it that grabbed your interest?
