I am listening and catching up on your podcasts. I was asking for them for so long and now that I have them….I haven’t been listening and catching up on them!

I am happy to see you share Hippocampus. I shared it with the teachers at my district and where I worked before. I think I posted about Hippocampus on Twitter (I take credit!) first. ha ha

Hope you two are doing well. Will you be at TEC-SIG?

Well, then I’m CERTAIN it was your post on Twitter that gave us Hippocampus! And now that you’re behind on our podcasts, we just published another! :)
