Brittany Ballou is in her fifth year of teaching but her first as a S.T.E.A.M. teacher.  Brittany is a huge fan of Disney which explains her Twitter handle @ImagineerSTEAM.  The last few years she was in a math/science gifted program which allowed her to naturally start STEAM projects as they go hand in hand.  What is ironic is she is a very type A person but S.T.E.A.M does not really allow for that so she has come to the conclusion if her room is a mess at the end of the day it must have been a good one.Connect with Brittany:Twitter @ImagineerSTEAMChris Woods is the host of the STEM Everyday Podcast… Connect with him:Website: dailystem.comTwitter: @dailystemInstagram: @dailystemYouTube: youtubeGet Chris’s book Daily STEM on AmazonSupport the show
