Today is bitter sweet! It is my last first day of school since 1976! Every year since kindergarten I have either been a student or part of a school staff experiencing the first day! The excitement of welcoming students on the 1st day is something that I will greatly miss!

OK diving into some self reflection about mathematical instructional practices in preparation for some @MWwolverines staff to get together and exchange thoughts and ideas after reading to talk about implementation to better serve our students. Thanks @pierce_edu for organizing.
