Week 8 Reflection

I had an amazing week.  On Thursday I did a 4 hour training for 25 teachers regarding our district's new LMS - Schoology.  On Friday, Saturday, and Sunday I attended the Alaska Science and Math Conference.  On Friday and Sunday I presented on making math irresistible by bringing MinecraftEdu into the classroom.  Every time I got a little nervous or would start to doubt myself I would remind myself that as a teacher I am a public speaker - thank you Dave Burgess for helping me to realize that.  I did my best to channel the pirate in me. Thank you Chris Bryner for jumping in and helping.  It was amazing listening to education leaders.  I had the pleasure of meeting Dr Graham and Dr Frenberg in person and was able to take their super cool paper circuit session.  I also had the opportunity to meet Mia and Sunshine.  I connected Sunshine with our IT person and together we helped her problem solve her Promethean board issue.  I really hope she gets it working.
