    I think the water documentary will be waiting until next week.  But I did share the "Story of Bottled Water" with my roommate this week.  He is from Saudi Arabia and always buys bottled water there.  I am helping him understand more about our water quality here.

    I am working in all of my classes to really get to know my students.  Today in yoga I had students share their favorite yoga poses and then work in groups of three to choose a sequence and teach it back.  I should have had them say their names when they presented - it makes a difference in community.  
    In conference work - I talked to at least 20 professional colleagues today - most of them new in my life the last 3 months!  Exciting!!

      Very nice Jeanette.  I've learned almost all the names too.  It takes some effort.

    Hello everyone!  IdEEA is excited to connect with you online through this Ecochallenge experience as we lead up to the 2018 Idaho Environmental Education Conference March 2-3, 2018 in Lewiston, Idaho.

    As we each pick and share about our ecochallenges we can discover the impact our everyday choices make.  And as educators, you will be able to check out this wonderful tool and ways you could use it in your community.

    Thank you  NWEI for supporting this experience and the 2018 conference!
