Although known affectionately by her five grandbabies (Adrianna (5), Owen (3), Ellery (3.5), Johannes (1) and Aiden (1) as �¢ï¿½ï¿½Oma�¢ï¿½ï¿½, must of us know Michele as someone who cares deeply about children, but also about science and mathematics education. Michele came to us at Gustavus after many years teaching (Kindergarten, 3rd grade and 5/6 multi-age) in the elementary schools and working with inservice teachers. Her professional activities have evolved over the years at Gustavus, shifting from a focus on practioner related activities to research related activities, along the way developing greater collaboration with two specific organizations: Wolf Ridge Environmental Learning Center and Sci/MathMN Teacher Research Network (TRN).�� Michele�¢ï¿½ï¿½s scholarly endeavors focus on understanding the learning and experiences of learning of youth with exceptionalities and second language learners in regular education classrooms, especially science and mathematics classroom.�� Playing with the grandbabies, counting butterflies, and messing about in a garden provide opportunities for Michele to frolic outside of her professional interests.
