Speaking at My Alma Mater, GO UND!

At the beginning of this school year, Mr. Reynolds invited me to speak to his preservice teachers at UND. I was flattered and so thrilled! I can't believe it has been 9 years since I was sitting in the classroom at UND taking Intro to Teaching and Learning!

Well, I went to UND yesterday and spoke to his class about what real world teaching is like! I gave them a classroom tour and explained the purpose for everything in our room and gave them some tips. I also talked about our classroom blog and Twitter account and how I use them as tools to connect with other teachers and parents. I showed them our Remind101 account and how I use it as an additional tool to communicate with parents. Finally, I showed them some of my favorite apps we use on our iPads everyday, and answered some questions they had. It was such a privilege to be invited back to my alma mater to speak to these students! Thanks for the invitation Mr. Reynolds!

Love this quote! I shared it with them last night.
