🥹 Officially 💯 ISTE Certified ✅ Pedagogy 🧠 + Tech 🧰 = History 🔎🗺️💻🤓 The process required me to deeply analyze the scope of my work, challenging and validating my practice, and then invite others into my context with my portfolio. #ISTECert #EdTech #SanJacLearns

First week of the 2023-2024 school year ✅ It’s always a whirlwind but I loved returning to campus upgrades, seeing colleagues, and all my students! So pound of what we’re building! Jackrabbits are better, smarter, and stronger every year!

First day of @UCLAHGP Themes in World History: Power & Democracy. Lots of great discussion about what a revolution is and how that interplays with types of power, plus the focus on the MX Rev. Got me thinking about adding to @MsGreeneEdu awesome lesson (aptly reshared today) 🤓

A5: 🤓 @scottmpetri EduProtocols for Middle and High School History session and IE Stories (an extension of @uclahgp Eastside Stories). Looking forward to finishing my #ISTE Portfolio this summer. #SSChat

A4: Regular 🎧 @Freakonomics, @99piorg, @throughlinenpr, @planetmoney, and many many others. I love learning something new each episode + tidbits/episodes to share with Ss #SSChat

“Crushed” (@religionofsport & @prx) was the perfect ⚾️ and “Norco ‘80” brought the local history. Storytelling 👌Worth the listen! #SSChat

8th grade Ss enjoyed a virtual field trip to @ConstitutionCtr “Civil War and Reconstruction” exhibit today. Grateful for these live opportunities for students to experience & connect with experts! I wish more museums had these experiences! #ISTECollaborator

Need something after state testing? I used ChatGPT to make quick(er) work on an end of the year breakout. ChatGPT created the scenario & turned the chapter summary into a short reading. I created a Form w/CFU ?s & clues to complete it. Ss had a blast working in groups to solve!

A little surprised when Ss asked “who is your favorite character?” You mean in the originals, the prequels, the new ones, the shows? I only get one?!? While I love Yodito, I think R2D2 takes it #May4thBeWithYou
