ABC Nature Walk: E is for Eagle



This video was taken at Cheyenne Mountain Zoo.  We love to go there and see all the animals.  This eagle is very majestic.  I like having such an up close look at the eagle.  You can see that its eyes were made for seeing far distances.  That beak looks fierce and can probably eat fish easily.  I felt sad for the eagle.  It can no longer fly, but at least the zoo is taking care of him.

Victoria: The STEAM Team Technologist

Your adventures with the STEAM Team continue as you meet Victoria today.  Previously, you met Silas , our scientist and now, meet our technologist. As you might recall, the purpose of the STEAM Team is to help learners conceive the importance of STEAM skills in a post-apocalyptic environment.  To plunge them into an environment where they must rise up and be the problem-solvers; there are no adults to tell them what to do or guide them along the way.  See how Victoria operates to do exactly that: Victoria was a Cogsworth.  In this age you didn’t get a last name unless you earned it.  Victoria was worth her weight in cogs.  It was an old saying.  One before the Bots ruined everything.  Somehow, they had held onto the words.  She was a Tech.  Technology was her thing. She had been eight when her ability to understand the technology of a thing came about.  Her ability to create and innovate technology came when she was nine.  Victoria was an elder in the eyes of most of the

I hope you are taking some time for yourself and reflecting on your emotions, accepting them, understanding them, and making necessary adjustments to nurture more of the outcomes you desire. You are worth it. You are making a difference. You matter. The Mr. recently took a training regarding the mental health of teachers. Many of us are having a difficult time teaching, which is likely unsurprising to you. We’re confronting new challenges for which there is no manual. In the face of these new challenges, it is vital that we care for ourselves. The Happy Teacher Revolution offers resources and training (which the Mr. recently underwent) to support us in doing so.
