I have to say that when Angie Kalthoff and I first started presenting I was so nervous about so many things. But now I LOVE it! Every time I present my love for technology in teaching gets recharged! And I really do learn so much from giving the presentations, they are a passion of mine and I feel so blessed to be able to do them! If you, your grade level, school or district is interested in having myself and/or The Techie Teachers come present to you please just fill out the contact me form below or leave a comment on the blog! Together with Angie I have presented in a variety of ways at multiple school districts, TIES conferences, trainings through Resource Solutions and to different small focus groups. We can tailor the presentation to meet your needs and we work with participants even after our sessions to ensure continued technology in teaching success! But you don't have to take my word for it, here is what some of the participants had to say from my Best Literacy Apps for K-2 Classrooms session yesterday:
'I appreciate the enthusiasm that you bring to teaching us! I imagine it is just as evident with your students. Thank you for sharing your learning and exploration with us. I love that you are so knowledgeable in all things techy, and are so helpful in explaining the usefulness of each app. It helps to jump in when there is a direction to go! It is also nice that you build in time to explore. Thanks for all your work in putting your presentation together...and sharing with us.'
'Great job, Sara! It was nice to have time to explore. It is beneficial to hear your thoughts and opinions about the apps. Thank you for being willing to help us out and answer questions.'
'As a kindergarten teacher myself, you are so in touch with what I need in my classroom. I plan to focus on the sight word apps in my classroom.'
Here is what some participants of Assessing with Your iPad had to say:
'Very good training despite being an iPad newbie!'
'I really liked how you used real life experiences/ how you used it in your classroom when explaining the app and not just telling us about the app.'
Thank you again to all who attended! I hope you found some great tools to help you increase your technology in teaching today!
