Ten years ago, my mom decided to help her 6th grade class understand just how big a “million” is. We throw the word out lightly. “My mom told me like a million times to clean my room.” “There are a million legos in my son’s room which he hasn’t cleaned”.
It was a memorable moment in Austin Powers when a million dollars went from a lot of money to a trivial amount over the course of a few decades:
Anyway, she’s at just about the halfway mark of the million bread tabs. She does not plan on teaching for another ten years, though, so it’s time to hit the gas on the project!

The address is:
Columbia Crest A-STEM Academy
24503 SR 706E
Ashford, WA 98304
(If I see you in person, I’m happy to send them myself!)
