When people invariably ask me in the month of June "Are you excited for Summer?" I think that they imagine me chilling on a beach somewhere with a mojito, not thinking about school at all. Usually I let them think that, (I don't want to seem like some sort of freak) but really I am excited at the prospect of having time to LEARN!!! Super nerd here!
The last few summers I was taking university Ed Psych courses, and I thoroughly enjoyed them, but I am taking a break from that for a bit (mostly due to the cost of university courses, sheesh!) and focusing on Ed Tech. I am starting my summer of learning by taking the Google Certified Educator Level 1 course, and so far it is pretty basic. I am hoping to blast through it and take Level 2 as well. I am so excited to use even more Tech in my classroom this year, and am thrilled that I will actually have some Tech Coach time embedded in my position to help others in my school with Tech implementation. Squeeeee!
The second Summer Project I am starting is to finally get some of my resources on Teachers Pay Teachers. I don't have much created yet, just some simple things, but I am hoping to delve more into that over the next year.
Lastly... CRAFTS! I created these lovely Crate Seats last summer and they were a HUGE HIT both with my kids and with the staff. I don't know why people were so surprised that I made them. I'm crafty! So this year I am looking at creating some more furniture for my room. I'm not sure what yet... but I have a lot of pallets....
