Hello and welcome everyone! I created this blog because I want to connect with other educators online, stay in touch with teachers I’ve met and share ideas. I know there are many of you out there who are like me and I am hoping to create a community of educators who want to share ideas, questions, resources, lesson plans and keep up with the latest news and technology. Whether you are a veteran teacher, an international teacher, a new teacher or simply interested in education, I believe we all have something to contribute to one another. My hope is that this blog will be used as a platform for an online community of teachers who want to expand their knowledge and empower their students.
