FUN AT ISTE 2015
Hello Teacher Friends!
I have definitely been M.I.A. when it comes to blogging. I'm so sorry, but it has been a crazy couple of months.
If the end of school wasn't hectic enough, I had a few other things happen...
#1: I sold my house. Then we sold an investment house that we owned which was where we were planning to move...yikes!
#2: We quickly found a new house to buy.
#3: My third grade team decided to departmentalize, and I will be teaching math.
#4: I left town two days after moving into my new house to come to ISTE 2015 conference.
WOW! That's is a lot, right?!?
The real reason for this post is because I am at the ISTE conference, and I am pumped about all of the new innovations in technology that I have learned about this week. My brain is on overload!!!
I will be blogging about all of the amazing things that my friends and I learned soon, but I thought that I would give you a few of them now:
Mr. Demaios, a third grade teacher who creates amazing videos on YouTube. He was incredible! Watch this video that he made to help with multiplication.

We also learned about a great book that teaches how technology is great, but without "us" it can create nothing. We are the creators and innovators. Check it out!

We also LOVE Kahoot! It is a great way to assess your students in a fun and interactive way. You can test your class, battle another class in your school, or even battle a class in another country! Let's take assessments and data and make it GLOBAL!
