Now that my Grosvenor Teacher Fellowship news was public it was time to start spreading the news. On our annual field trip to the Massachusetts State House, I received a very big surprise. During our tour, Representative Jones took all the Howe-Manning 4th graders into the House Chambers (something we don't typically get to do) and allowed them all to sit in the chamber seats. The next thing I knew, Representative Jones and Representative Kerans were calling me up to the floor where I received a citation from The Commonwealth of Massachusetts House of Representatives in recognition of my Grosvenor Teacher Fellowship. It was a true honor to receive such recognition and made even more special by having all our Howe-Manning 4th graders there with me.

Next up was presenting at the Middleton School Committee meeting to update them regarding the particulars of my expedition. I was able to share the news of my citation from the State House and provide further details regarding what exactly the fellowship entails.

I provided a little geography lesson on where Patagonia is located along with where specifically I will be heading on my expedition. I also filled the committee in on some of the curriculum connections I've made so far and how this expedition has seamlessly been integrated into my classroom curriculum.
