SPECIAL PROJECTS
Tech Creations
​
During WACO's innovative +1 programming, I planned and taught an enrichment class called "Tech Creations". Students filmed and edited videos with WeVideo, created invitations using Canva, edited images using Pixlr, and remixed songs with Incredibox.
Social Studies Fairs
​
Over 100 students participate in our annual 4/5/6 Social Studies Fair. I have organized and put on Colonial Fairs, Country Fairs, and State Fairs. Students research, create projects, and showcase their presentations to parents and peers.
Southeast Iowa Innovators Conference Speaker
​
Education professionals from multiple districts gathered to hear teacher leaders speak about innovation and technology topics. I spoke about using screencasting in the classroom.
