Year 12

Tomorrow I start year number 12 in education. With certainty I can say that I had no idea what I was doing in the days leading up to the start of year 1 when I was an 8th grade Social Studies teacher and coach. I can't guarantee that I know what I'm doing now as an Instructional Technology Facilitator, and there are many days when I feel like I know even less than when I started. Either way you look at it, I am continuing to strive for excellence, learning what I can along the way. 
 
Here's a little of what I've been up to this summer...in no particular order.

• spent quality time with my two kids
• attended & presented at Region 10's technology conference
• taught 4 professional learning classes
• attended the first Google Innovator Energizer in Chicago, IL
• presented at ISTE
• attended our district's first ever technology conference
• became a Project Culture Shift leader
• wrote Social Studies and Science curriculum 
• planned some pretty fun projects for my campuses
• completed 50% of a graduate degree

Cheers to the best year yet!
