My LJTECHi3 journey so far! Many ups and downs this year. For me, this journey is not almost over, it will be continuous. I need to keep challenging myself. #LJTECHi3 @LaJoyaISDEdTech @CGarza0930 @AnaMPerez1 @OmarLopez0207 @eduGOOGdroid

Our fun activity using time-lapse video. This is my not-so-perfect brownie in a mug! 😆First try. 2nd mug came out much better! 😋My video won't process, but here is a photo of the end result. 🙈 #LJTECHi3 @CGarza0930 @eduGOOGdroid @OmarLopez0207 @AnaMPerez1 @LaJoyaISDEdTech

Getting ingredients ready! ☺️ Yes, I love H-E-B! ❤️ #LJTECHi3 @LaJoyaISDEdTech @CGarza0930 @AnaMPerez1 @eduGOOGdroid @OmarLopez0207

Lol, so my answers were incorrect, but I can see how this would be an awesome activity for my kiddos! Don't judge me! 😆🙈 My guess was either Mario or Luigi... #LJTECHi3 @eduGOOGdroid @CGarza0930 @AnaMPerez1 @OmarLopez0207 @LaJoyaISDEdTech

It's all about continuous growth. Life-long learner. #LJTECHi3

@AnaMPerez1 @CGarza0930 @LaJoyaISDEdTech A5: As a teacher, my growth will continue as I introduce new technology applications to students every six weeks. As a tech leader, I will continue my professional development. Also, practice is key in order to be able to share with my colleagues. #LJTECHi3 @CGarza0930

#LJTECHi3 Academy - Our last question of the night ⭐️ Question 5️⃣. @CGarza0930 @LaJoyaISDEdTech Reminder to type A5: then your response. #LJTECHi3

@AnaMPerez1 @CGarza0930 @LaJoyaISDEdTech A4: I decompress when I feel overwhelmed by watching my favorite TV shows and playing with my many cats. My family keeps me going. #LJTECHi3 @CGarza0930 @LaJoyaISDEdTech @OmarLopez0207 @eduGOOGdroid @AnaMPerez1

#LJTECHi3 Academy ↪ Let's keep this discussion going, here's Question 4️⃣. @CGarza0930 @LaJoyaISDEdTech Reminder to type A4: then your response. #LJTECHi3

@AnaMPerez1 @CGarza0930 @LaJoyaISDEdTech A3: My main reason for integrating technology in my lessons is lack of student participation. Some students may be embarrassed to answer questions orally or through the chat, so technology provides me with a way to informally assess them. @PearDeck #LJTECHi3 @CGarza0930

@AnaMPerez1 @LaJoyaISDEdTech @CGarza0930 A2: I help my students develop confidence and grit, but helping them understand that it is ok to make mistakes and encourage them to keep trying. I reiterate that giving up is the only final mistake. #LJTECHi3 @CGarza0903 @LaJoyaISDTech @AnaMPerez1 @eduGOOGdroid @OmarLopez0207

#LJTECHi3 Academy •• Question 2️⃣ coming your way! @LaJoyaISDEdTech @CGarza0930 Remember to use the hashtag #LJTECHi3

@AnaMPerez1 @LaJoyaISDEdTech @CGarza0930 Good evening fellow LJTECHi3 members! I am Laura Rodriguez from Diaz-Villarreal Elementary, and I am a 4th grade teacher. My favorite dessert is DESSERT in general. LOL. I enjoy pie and cake. 😋

Here we go @LaJoyaISDEdTech Academy Members! 🎉 #LJTECHi3 @CGarza0930

Ready!

@CGarza0930 @LaJoyaISDEdTech A6: Go with the flow. If everything you planned doesn't go exactly as plan, don't fret. The students have been understanding when "Teacher" is having "technical difficulties." #LJTECHi3 @LaJoyaISDEdTech @CGarza0930

@LaJoyaISDEdTech Question 6: Reminder to type A6: then your response. #LJTECHi3

@CGarza0930 @LaJoyaISDEdTech A5: Definitely incorporate Seesaw and Flipgrid in your lessons. Students enjoy using them. #LJTECHi3 @LaJoyaISDEdTech @CGarza0930

@GregTrevin2 @CGarza0930 @LaJoyaISDEdTech Me too. I think I am going to make the purchase!

@LaJoyaISDEdTech Question 4 - Reminder to type A4: then your response. #LJTECHi3

@CGarza0930 @LaJoyaISDEdTech A3: I created a Quizziz assignment during the first week of school, and I had students actually telling me, "Thank You Ms for doing it on Quizziz!" I was so surprised from their reaction. I knew I needed push myself to learn new things for them. #LJTECHi3 @LaJoyaISDEdTech

@CGarza0930 @LaJoyaISDEdTech A2: I have incorporated Google slides, Jamboard, Peardeck, Seesaw, Flipgrid, and other web based apps. The students prefer to do their activities and assignments on these types of programs rather than using paper/pencil. #LJTECHi3 @LaJoyaISDEdTech @CGarza0930
