Oct. Inservice. aaiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

Think of me peeps.

 Friday I am teaching another "tech in the art room" inservice (professional devel) to a group of LISD Art teachers, elem and secondary!

I thought it would 5 of us sitting around playing with our iPads, but there are 23 coming and that means I better have my act together. Omgeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

Would it be bad to just play Tricia Fuglestad's videos all day?

*notfreakingoutatall*

Update! 

I AM TIRED OF MY OWN VOICE.

Thank you, Alan Kohutek for coming and talking for us about technology! We are excited! You can't  tell, but really we are!

There were 27 Art Teachers in my room with all kinds of devices and we rocked it! How to use iPads, Cool Art Apps, Minecraft, Google Apps, Google Sites and Blogger....omgeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

This is one tired girl.

We are engaged and enthusiastic, not bored. I promise.

Looky what I did. *giggle*

Ok, so check this out---

LISD 1:X

Seriously, when I post, I pretend no one is reading. My own mother doesn't even follow this blog. My blog says I have, like, I don't know, 22 followers (thanks Bloglovin' and Feedly! I know I have more! Huh.). Imagine my surprise when I was asked to be a guest blogger on our district's 1:X website?! Me? Have you read my stuff? I talk about Star Trek waaay too much.

This means I get to be a huge (loud) voice for Donald Elementary and Art(s) Education! I am going to be shining a huge (loud) spotlight on us, so buff up. THIS. IS. HAPPENING. PEOPLE.

A year ago I was fumbling around with blogging. Jessica at Art of Ed and Tricia Fuglestad have inspired me so much. (Jessica actually helped me set up my blog--she is a rock star.)Thanks to these awesome art educators, we art teachers here in LISD can raise our roof. Promote and model what we are already doing!

I intend to stay true to my goal of demonstrating practical ways to incorporate tech with traditional art making. Messy hands and clean iPads. It can work.

Keep checking it out. And send me your cool stuff!
