I realized that I didn't want to be working in a factory for the rest of my life and jumped in to college with both feet. After I received my bachelor degree in Elementary Education I took a year off from college so that I could focus solely on teaching. ]]> 2019-06-23 20:20:01 UTC https://padlet.com/babrown3/tg91c1c5hvl6/wish/368830932 babrown3 https://padlet.com/babrown3/tg91c1c5hvl6/wish/368831914 To be honest I've only used  technology so far in a very basic way. I am from an era that grew up without technology at our finger tips so it has always been a little bit intimidating to me. I have only recently started to explore the ways that I can use technology to enhance learning in the classroom. 

My classroom is not 1:1 but I do have 6 chrome books that I can split between my students. I have taken advantage of websites such as Kahoot and Quizziz to review topics in a fun and engaging way. I also use smart exchange for my smart board to make games for students to play.

I was really excited to learn about Padlet and I think that it will be a great tool to use in my 2nd grade classroom. ]]> 2019-06-23 20:33:59 UTC https://padlet.com/babrown3/tg91c1c5hvl6/wish/368831914
