My journey… Taught 3 years in Omaha, Nebraska Began at Citadel in November 2000 Grade 6, 7, 7/8, 8, Student Services Questions about technology…lots of questions…

Technology is like water… If we teach our kids, they will swim, if we don’t…

And so… Grade 8 Transition to Riverside How am I preparing students for grade 9 Meeting the needs of all learners Professional Development 2 years of graduate studies Masters in Educational Practice…

The question I hope to investigate… By moving to a 1:1/Bring Your Own Device classroom environment, how can I enhance the social-emotional learning in my classroom?

Examples of technology we will explore…

What does this mean? We will… We will not… Learn about digital safety! Investigate our digital footprint/ tatoo Discuss, practice appropriate use with technology Stay connected with each other Keep our bodies moving Learn about empathy Create projects with a variety of output/learning options We will not… Use technology for everything!
