Tell us about your most memorable teaching experienceOne of my most memorable teaching moments was Solar Eclipse Day. I dressed as an astronaut, and we dedicated the entire day to learning about solar eclipses—reading, discussing, and stepping outside each hour to observe the changing phases. Seeing my first graders’ excitement, wonder, and curiosity made it truly magical and reminded me how special it is to experience learning together.
What would you do with the $25,000?I would put half of the $25,000 into savings for my future, and use part of the rest to support my school—helping buy classroom materials and resources our students need to learn and thrive.
