For this episode, I got to sit down with Dr. Melyssa Ferro, a middle school science teacher. Melyssa shares a great learning experience involving water testing at a local lake. She also discusses the teachers that inspired her along the way and how she hopes to provide both windows and mirrors for her own students. I loved her two pieces of advice for teachers: 1)Connect with other educators and borrow their ideas and 2)Fail Forward. Don’t be afraid to model being in the learning pit yourself. As we cruise into the final month of school, I hope this episode helps you remember what a difference you can make in the lives of students and also inspires you to try something new. And as always thanks for joining us.
