Welcome!

Hi y'all!
This is a first for me and I am excited for you to join on this journey with me. I recently began my TPT journey after 3 years in the classroom. I was hired as a 6th grade math teacher, but quickly fell in love with technology and took a job as an Educational Technology Specialist my second year teaching. I spend most of my days educating little minds and putting together resources that my teachers can use in their classrooms. I am always creating lessons for my classes so I figured, why not share what I am doing with others. I always love the lessons and resources that I find on TPT from other teachers, so I hope that I can do the same for some of you. 

 I will post freebies here that won't be available in my TPT store so make sure that you subscribe to my blog. I will also use this blog to write about my products and share about how they work in my classroom. I look forward to this adventure with you. 


- Hilary

Powtoon {Cartoon Presentation Software}

Powtoon was introduced to me by a friend who was working on a presentation for one of our professional development days. She was talking about how boring PowerPoint could get when it was presenting information to those who were forced to attend meetings. She was going to try something different - and that is where Powtoon came in. Powtoon is a presentation software that allows you to share information using cartoons, speech bubbles, and animations.  Basically, you can make cartoons enter and exit your screen at any point, and they can share information while they are there. Think about Saturday morning cartoons that you are creating yourself to share something that is of interest to you! There are some great graphics and you can even add your own images and sound. Let's be real here, who wouldn't like a presentation where cartoons are teaching you about the next latest and greatest in the world of education? Try it out & let me know what you think, Mrs. Tech ...

Build Your Wild Self {Animal Adaptations}

Build Your Wild Self  was a site that I just stumbled upon, but was probably one of my students favorite activities that we did all year. Basically, students are able to create themselves by playing with their body, hair, eyes, mouth, clothes. They can then make themselves "wild" by adding headgear, ears, face, arms, bottoms, backsides, and tails that are all body parts of wild animals. This activity isn't all fun though - there is educational value too! Once the students are done creating their "wild self" they will click I'M DONE. This will take them to the next page where it will explain to the students what is "wild" about them. It will tell them where their wild parts came from and why those parts are important to the survival of that particular animal. So there you have it - educational and a ton of fun! Just wait to see what kind of creatures your students come up with! It will be entertaining, I guarantee you that much. Try it ou...

Fire Safety Week Resources

Next week, October 8-14, 2017 is FIRE SAFETY/PREVENTION week! I think that there is always a way to tie in these kinds of ideas into something that you are learning. Even if you aren't teaching it the entire week, teach a mini lesson or show a video before/after a special or first thing one more and have a conversation about fires and how they are preventable.  Do you have fire drills in your school? Discuss why you do those and why they are so important. Do you have a back up location to go if your first one if compromised? One time, when the alarm goes off, tell your kids that your first location is compromised and head for the second location.  Here are a few resources that I have found that I think are helpful for teaching about Fire Safety: Fire Safety Rap Video   Video About Fire Safety (Interview with Firemen) Fire Safety "What Ifs?" Easy Fireman Hat Fire Safety Activities And OF COURSE - Fire Safety Snacks!! Fire Truck Crackers ...
