We need to be brought into the 21st Century! I am looking for ideas and lessons that will bring more technology into my classes, because my students need to become more comfortable with technology in order to understand the world today.
My Philosophy:
As one of my childhood heroes once said...
"Do or do not... there is no try!"
Expectations breed confidence, and confidence helps us reach our highest potential!

Why Do I Teach?:
I never liked school when I was young... the teachers never made me feel important, and the work never interested me. I became a teacher so that, for at least 180 days of their life, I can be a positive influence in an adolescent's life!
