This inspiring TED talk by John Hunter, who began his teaching career in Richmond City, offers how he creates the space for his students to make meaning from an experience and out of their own understanding.

Spend 20 minutes today listening to how he uses The World Peace Game to engage 4th graders in solving the complex problems of today's world.  It is a fabulous example of what is possible - teaching young people how to think creatively inside a classroom that is both nurturing and challenging.

Small Kelly Lewis Hello! Here are a few things that I have found support me in creating the life I want, keeping myself in check, and leading with courage and compassion: a slow walk with my hubby and our pups, my work, honesty with myself, the smile of another, and mother nature.
