As far as using technology in the classroom, I would say I use a fair amount. Our school is lucky enough to have a plethora of technology tools including: smart-boards, document cameras, Chromebooks etc.
What I would like to gain from this collegial learning circle is also one of the fears I have in using technology, just trying to keep up and be informed with the amount of resources that are out there to use. We are inundated with so many helpful tools and internet resources to use not only ourselves but also with our students. Trying to find a balance of what can be useful and manageable can sometimes be overwhelming. My goal would be to find a better way to navigate all we are given to better determine what would be of benefit to me and my students.
One of my favorite hobbies outside of work is sports. I am a season ticket holder of the Buffalo Bills and Rochester Red Wings. I am also very busy with my family. My wife and I just had our second baby girl, Mackenzie. Our first daughter, Madeline, is two years old and is quite a ball of energy. The picture below was taken over Christmas.
