Fulbright Orientation Washington D.C. August 2014.

What an amazing orientation!  Met many extraordinary teachers coming to the U.S. and going abroad.
Countries this year include- Finland, New Zealand , Singapore, India, Mexico, Palestinian Territories, Israel ( me)!, South Korea and England.

BTW here is Israel:

Imagination and Action!

OK, so I borrowed IMAGINATION AND ACTION from the summer camp I have been at for many years.  It is an amazing place.  When you drive in you see this sign-

I'm a dreamer and a schemer.  Add a lot of hard work into that equation (and maybe a little luck)  and you are going places! 

In 2015, I will be on a Fulbright to Israel.  This summer I begin my doctorate in education at Northeastern.  Both are very exciting (that's an understatement)!!!!

Oh Wahoo! It is happening!!!

The ideas, the writing, the hours... all paid off.  What an ENORMOUS  opportunity!
