Day 157 -August 27- Dave MacMullen
Dave insisted on trying to avoid my camera. I know that I do the same often to others. I feel like it's a game, so that's why I had to put three pictures for Dave's entry, even though Francois and Dan only got one each. Maybe it's a little mean of me, but I couldn't help myself. It brings a smile to me face thinking of how much of a challenge it was.
Dave is one of the most important resources KSB has. He is quite possible the most talented educator, mentor, curriculum developer that I have ever met in my life. I had the privilege of working with him when I was teaching science and math in the last few years. He listens well and can quickly analyze what you are really asking, even when it is still unclear in your own mind. He can connect with students, read their comprehension and present even difficult concepts in a creative, fun and effective way almost all of the time.
All the secondary teachers were in a training session for the new Math and Science secondary program this week. He has a talented team hat he is working with, and they've managed to create materials that are fun, hand's on and challenging in a very short period of time. It was really nice working with him again. Superstar of Math and Science!
