    A10: There's no one-size-fits-all method to teach kids. Empower Ss to recognize and try to fill-in their missing pieces. #gfedchat

    A11:This is what we strive for-not cookie cutter/one-size fits all. Need choice, voice, self-motivation, growth mindset, ownership #gfedchat

    A11: Kids learn best when don't realize they are learning. I love making engaging content, discussion, & making them think! #gfedchat

    A11: Ss learn best by doing (hands on,trial/error), then reflect & trying again. A natural style of learning if Ts weren't around #gfedchat
