The Nerd Camp Song. March 24, 2015. I cannot believe that this is a real blog post. It blows my mind that Nerd Camp has an actual theme song. How cool is that? I’m very thankful that Christopher Petty. Volunteered by his wife Dev, wrote us the perfect theme song for our summer literacy event. I can’t wait to play it for my students. If you’d like more information about Nerd Camp please click on the image below (Designed by the lovely Laurie Keller). March 22, 2015. Happy Saturday, Mr. Schu! March 21, 2015.

January 29, 2015. 4 If you could spend one day insid...
