From Elementary Ed to Inspiring Speakers

By Lynn Petrinjak

Posted on 2013-04-12

I started the morning with a visit to the Elementary Extravaganza. So much activity was going on. I overheard one attendee exclaim, “I didn’t know we had so many elementary teachers!”
I’m not sure if he meant in Texas or in NSTA!
I also attended Mireya Mayor’s feature presentation,”My Wild Life.” She is a field researcher, TV personality, and mother. Her passion and dedication to science and science education were inspiring. I learned about the differences between lowland gorillas and mountain gorillas… the photos of the lemur she helped discover were adorable.
