One dawn, the side of the lab was opened--it was in a warehouse--and we saw that the lab next to us was shipping out a satellite to its launching site. It glowed in the golden sunrise, a surreal vision. We had no idea it was there next door ... and now it is in space!]]> 2019-08-26 14:37:04 UTC https://padlet.com/lin2057038/y4ncdjrz4fr1/wish/377118087 lin2057038 https://padlet.com/lin2057038/y4ncdjrz4fr1/wish/377120902 After many years of teaching and training, I enjoy being back in school to earn my Teaching Certification.]]> 2019-08-26 14:43:46 UTC https://padlet.com/lin2057038/y4ncdjrz4fr1/wish/377120902 lin2057038 https://padlet.com/lin2057038/y4ncdjrz4fr1/wish/377281496 A hexagon has 6 sides.
