Today I am talking with Allie Castellano, a first grade teacher in Fort Worth, TX. I met Allie in 2012, my first year at TCU when she was a first year student. A few years later, Allie worked for me as a teaching assistant when she was a graduate student. From the very beginning, I knew Allie was going to be one of those teachers who made a huge impact in her students’ lives, and she has surpassed my expectations. I can’t wait to talk with her about teaching and learning, and there may even be a mystery reference to Pokemon!
