I live in Hartsville, South Carolina in a small town about
15 minutes away from my school. My
school is located in Darlington, South Carolina right behind the racetrack that
is Too Tough To Tame! Darlington is a
very rural and the students zoned for my school are mostly high poverty.
I teach all subjects of 2nd grade at Pate
Elementary School. My school is a Title
I school. My district is currently in
the process of trying to roll out 1 to 1 technology, with iPads in the lower
grades. In the 2013-14 school year, I was
able to participate in the Pilot program with the iPads. I was successfully
able to use an LMS and integrate technology and research more in my
classroom. Unfortunately I switched
schools and was not able to take them with me last year. Luckily, I just received news that I am
receiving a classroom set of iPads for the 2015-16 school year.
I am a fully online student at Lesley pursuing my Masters in
Educational Technology. I have two
classes left in this program after this semester.
My hobbies include reading, singing, art, and
exploring. I have a loving boyfriend,
Everett, and two playful Yorkies, Buddy and Tucker. I love to travel when I can, even if it is
just the beach for the weekend.
