In this week's episode I interview Aundrea who is a 6th-grade advanced student. We talk all about extra credit in my science class which takes the form of Side Quests. These are activities that link with science content but don't necessarily connect directly to unit tests. They take two main forms: unit specific activities and monthly STEM challenges.  You can learn more about these, and other side quests, in my +1 Learning Blog Post.
