Teacher Innovator Institute

      I had an incredible opportunity to attend the inaugural Teacher Innovator Institute in Washington DC this summer. We were housed at American University and split our time between the National Space and Science Center and Hazy. Wow! Our first day was talking one on one with an astronaut on the Space Shuttle Discovery! We spoke with pilots, museum curators and directors, and experts in a variety of fields.  The focus of our institute was to incorporate resources from museums, project based learning, and resources for our students.

 Thirty teachers were selected from all over the US. Here is a picture of our awesome group!
