I went to a small school, Keytesville R-3, and graduated valedictorian in 2011.]]> 2017-06-26 18:44:35 UTC https://padlet.com/slinneman/uk1pt3iimk53/wish/177473530 slinneman https://padlet.com/slinneman/uk1pt3iimk53/wish/177473670 After graduating high school I attended Central Methodist University in Fayette, MO. During my time here I became an active member of a local sorority, Alpha Gamma Psi. While participating in that, I worked hard and earned my BA, majoring in English and minoring in education and graduated in 2014.]]> 2017-06-26 18:46:33 UTC https://padlet.com/slinneman/uk1pt3iimk53/wish/177473670 slinneman https://padlet.com/slinneman/uk1pt3iimk53/wish/177474232 After graduating I started teaching 7-12 ELA at Bucklin R-II where I am still currently working. Besides teaching, I am the head softball coach, assistant baseball coach, Drama Club advisor, a member of the leadership team, and have been a class sponsor for three years. Although I am constantly busy with something, I love teaching here!]]> 2017-06-26 18:50:02 UTC https://padlet.com/slinneman/uk1pt3iimk53/wish/177474232 slinneman https://padlet.com/slinneman/uk1pt3iimk53/wish/177474622 By the end of this course I hope to be more confident in my ability to integrate technology into my classroom efficiently and effectively.]]> 2017-06-26 18:53:38 UTC https://padlet.com/slinneman/uk1pt3iimk53/wish/177474622 slinneman https://padlet.com/slinneman/uk1pt3iimk53/wish/177474743 While I was in college, I was determined to graduate in three years. To do that, I had to take classes every summer. The summer of 2013 I decided that I wanted to participate in Study Abroad to earn my college credit in the summer, so I decided to study in Ireland. It was one of the best choices I ever made! I was able to meet a lot of new people across the U.S. and had a lot of fun being able to explore during the three weeks I spent there!]]> 2017-06-26 18:55:29 UTC https://padlet.com/slinneman/uk1pt3iimk53/wish/177474743 slinneman https://padlet.com/slinneman/uk1pt3iimk53/wish/177475101 I would like to say the amount of technology I use is about normal for people my age. I use my cell phone every day, more for the internet aspect than the phone aspect. I also had a laptop and tablet that I use a lot. I take advantage of my tablet because I have an app that allows me to access my school computer from home, and I absolutely love being able to use it during the school year.]]> 2017-06-26 18:58:40 UTC https://padlet.com/slinneman/uk1pt3iimk53/wish/177475101 slinneman https://padlet.com/slinneman/uk1pt3iimk53/wish/177475300 In the past years I haven't used a lot of technology within my classroom, but the main reason for that is a lack of availability. This next year I will have my own set of chromebooks to use, so I plan to be on them a lot more, exploring the online curriculum we have and getting the students more tech savvy for an educational setting.]]> 2017-06-26 19:02:02 UTC https://padlet.com/slinneman/uk1pt3iimk53/wish/177475300
