Ms. Becky Lattof has been a 5th grade teacher at a K-5 aviation and aerospace magnet school, a stay at home parent, and a K-8 STEM lab teacher in Central Florida. She was a physics major for two years before switching to education to help students build their self-confidence to explore STEM for themselves. She is a progressive educator who values student choice and voice, project based learning, game-based learning, and social emotional learning. Last year she participated in a year-long professional development program at the Orlando Science Center, introduced gamification to her classroom, and designed learning experiences to build school culture and student agency. She is currently not teaching due to Covid-19, instead supporting her children who are learning at home, designing a website for teachers to share digital resources, and volunteering as an assistant organizer for an epic Minecraft project of the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C. to highlight the work of American civil rights activists.
