About Me
I have been a kindergarten teacher for 10 years. The past few years I have become more and more fascinated with technology and how to use it in the classroom. I have a Tablet PC and LCD projector that I use in my classroom daily. I also do a lot with digital photography and photoshop programs to enhance lessons in my room. This year, my hope is to integrate video conferencing, as well as learning how to podcast. Any help would be greatly appreciated! :-)

    You sound like me! I am only in my 4th year of kindergarten but have been teaching 19 years. I am SLOWLY bringing technology in to my classroom. What do you do with a Tablet PC?

    I have 6 old computers my students can access the internet and last year I got a Smart Board which is totally awesome! I am writing a grant for iPods and want to get into podcasting with my class. Sorry I can not help you, but maybe we can muddle through together.

    Hi Mrs. Baker!

    Hope you're enjoying the winter break. I was wondering if you have any 2ndary education contacts who would be interested in participating in a nationwide Vocab Video Contest @ MIT university. We'd really like to get more students involved from Illinois!

    You can view contest details at BrainyFlix.com Please let me know. Thanks!
