The Team

Our team may be from all of over the US, but we know each other very well.  In 2012, we were part of a team of only 15 teachers selected from around the world to participate in Honeywell Advanced Space Academy for Educators.  We spent 8 days together immersed in the world of STEM at the US Space and Rocket Center in Huntsville, AL and Kennedy Space Center in Florida.

From there our passion for space science and our connections to each other only continued to grow.  As we communicate almost daily through social media, we've continued challenging each other to bring learning in STEM to a whole new level in our classrooms, schools, and communities.  We formed a team to apply for the Microgavity eXperience at Johnson Space Center. This opportunity will be amazing for our students, and yours, to be a part of.

We may live all over the US, but that doesn't stop us from collaborating!  Through social media and video conferencing, we are a TRUE team! Here we are enjoying a Google Hangout as we discussed plans for our classrooms. We even wore our Blue Flight Suits for the occasion.
