Siemens STEM Institute 2013

I guess it is safe to share that I have been selected to attend the Siemens STEM Institute this summer.  This is an all-expenses paid trip to Washington D.C. to learn from the best of the best!  You can check out the other fellows by visiting the Siemens STEM Institute 2013 Program Fellows page.  The week is full of fun trips, speakers, and activities that will build my content knowledge and resource library.  I am absolutely PUMPED to be going and cannot wait to bag my bags and get down there.  Everyday I look through the program materials I have been sent so far and try to contain my excitement.  I hope to be able to bring my experiences back to my classroom and become an even better STEM teacher for my students.  Since my class is all out the real-world and the real-world is constantly changing, I need to make sure that I am changing with it!  I will also be blogging about my activities (and hopefully tweeting) the entire week.  Stay tuned...
