Welcome to my first introductory blog. I am currently teaching 8th grade reading at Lewis and Clark Middle School in Bellevue, Nebraska. This is my ninth year of teaching. I also co-sponsor the school yearbook, and coach various sports and clubs. I graduated from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln in 2003 with a BS in English Education. Finally, I received my Master's in Curriculum and Instruction in 2010. My husband's name is Paul, and we have been married for seven years. We have two children; Susanna and William.
Over the course of my graduate study, I became more confident with my use of technology. I would not considered myself to be "tech savvy" in any stretch of the word, but I am always willing to try something to see if it is applicable or not. Without a doubt, I gravitate towards a PC. Currently, I use these technologies in my classroom: Online Design, Edmodo, Gmail, rover cart, youtube.com, Microsoft PowerPoint, and occasionally, Windows Movie Maker.
Glad to have you in class, Shelly! I hope you can develop your blog over the next few weeks and incorporate blogging as a tool in your technology toolbox! You may want to check out this site, keepvid.com. It allows you to save YouTube videos!

ReplyDeleteI am not sure if you will get this comment, but I often think about you and your family! I don't know if you will remember me--but I was Suzanna's teacher at MCA several years ago! :) I know this is an older post-but it looks like life was treating you well!

I have your Criswell Study Bible from GGM Ida w Myers/myers on Christmas 1983. Eileen Me bus left it with a bunch of stuff in our attic and we just found it, having heard that she passed away some years ago. If you want it, please contact me at writebrain1@comcast.net.
