Great Professional Development!

Yesterday, I attended Technology Day at Bay Path College sponsored by the Massachusetts Foreign Language Association.  It was such a great day.  I learned about a lot of new apps and even reviewed some that I already use. It was a great day.  I love to connect with colleagues and discuss teaching and learning.  I wish we had more opportunities to do this.
I cannot wait to play with all of the various technologies I heard about.  So far this summer I have been really focused on professional growth.  All week I have been working on updating our curriculum.  I wanted to integrate the AP themes, be sure we have incorporated 21st Century Skills into each unit and connect our units of study to the Common Core.  I have found some great resources and to collect them I am using Diigo.  This will allow me to share with colleague and they can also contribute to the resources.
I also created my first iMovie this week.  It is pretty simple but it is a start.  It is about the kitties in the gazebo and summer relaxation.  Unfortunately the kitties are not going back into the gazebo because of the Monday morning fiasco with Tepi UNDER the gazebo instead of IN the gazebo.  Well that's all for today.  Lots to explore next week!
