Include are my dad, stepmom, stepsister and sister. My dad works as a patent attorney and my mom works as a nurse practitioner. My older stepsister is an attorney and my younger sister is currently studying Elementary Education. ]]> 2018-05-09 13:03:43 UTC https://padlet.com/mdeneufbourg/gih0vrq167qp/wish/259255591 mdeneufbourg https://padlet.com/mdeneufbourg/gih0vrq167qp/wish/259255692 In my free time I love to read, binge watch a good TV show, and spend time with family and friends. I also love traveling and exploring new places. I am especially looking forward to summer when I will have more time for all of this!

I do have experience abroad as I studied in Granada, Spain for a semester while completing my Spanish degree. This summer, I am chaperoning our school sponsored Spain trip, and it is the first time I will be back since I lived there. I am looking forward to traveling there again and to seeing my students' reactions as they have their first experiences traveling abroad (and traveling independently, without their parents or families). ]]> 2018-05-09 13:03:58 UTC https://padlet.com/mdeneufbourg/gih0vrq167qp/wish/259255692 mdeneufbourg https://padlet.com/mdeneufbourg/gih0vrq167qp/wish/259255770 extremely thoughtful and pensive. I like to take time to digest and sort through new information, texts, thoughts, and ideas in order to reach a deeper understanding. Then, I like to test that understanding by engaging in individual reflection or dialogue with others. ]]> 2018-05-09 13:04:10 UTC https://padlet.com/mdeneufbourg/gih0vrq167qp/wish/259255770 mdeneufbourg https://padlet.com/mdeneufbourg/gih0vrq167qp/wish/259255859 Currently, I am a high school Spanish teacher. I teach levels 1 and 2. In the past, I have also taught high school English. I recently completed my ESL/Bilingual endorsement as well. ]]> 2018-05-09 13:04:24 UTC https://padlet.com/mdeneufbourg/gih0vrq167qp/wish/259255859 mdeneufbourg https://padlet.com/mdeneufbourg/gih0vrq167qp/wish/259255942 In the future, I would love to have a teaching position that allows me to teach a combination of the different content areas I am endorsed in. I would be most interested in returning to teaching both English and Spanish, or a combination of one of those content areas with ESL. ]]> 2018-05-09 13:04:35 UTC https://padlet.com/mdeneufbourg/gih0vrq167qp/wish/259255942 mdeneufbourg https://padlet.com/mdeneufbourg/gih0vrq167qp/wish/259255990 Our school is one-to-one, with each student having a school Chromebook. Our district also provides WiFi hotspots to students who do not have internet access at home so that they are able to use their technology both in school and at home. My hope in taking this course is to find more new and interesting ways to use this technology effectively engage my students. I would like to find new tools to use (or new ways to use ones I have already tried) and also ways to help my students develop digital literacy skills which are critical in the 21st century global society they are a part of. ]]> 2018-05-09 13:04:42 UTC https://padlet.com/mdeneufbourg/gih0vrq167qp/wish/259255990
