Teacher Scholars
Tech Tool Challenge Issued. Lifelong learners, Unite.
Willing to play with tech tools?
Each month, explore a tool and share your successes and failures. I am open to Blog Hops, Instagram posts, or Facebook shares. I think that exploring, investigating and sharing is the most important thing. Share using #TchrScolrs so that we can celebrate the work that we are doing in our classrooms.
My goal is for us to play in the digital sandbox and gain confidence so that we can share our new found tech skills with our students.
