Little Minds Big Thinkers

In this episode, I have the great pleasure of talking with Jen Miller, who teaches first grade in North Carolina. She graciously shares how she's figuring out BTC in her space with her thinkers.

Today I chat with Catherine Smith who teaches a 3/4 combo class in New Zealand. I think many will relate to Catherine's journey and feel both inspired and seen.
