About me
Willow Creek Elementary • IT
I love integrating technology into lessons. In my class, my students have a voice and choice. Some of my favorite tools are Canva, Adobe Creative, Flip, and Wixie. I have been mostly an ELA teacher for 16 years. I have taught 1st grade (self-contained), 3rd grade & 4th grade all subjects. I have taught 5th grade ELA along with 3rd-5th GT and ESL. Technology has always been fun to learn, and now I have the honor to help Willow Creek cardinals grow and get career ready.

Tech Tools I Love to Use
Canva for Educators: This is an amazing tool to create newsletters, videos, anchor charts, & more
Adobe Creative: This is an amazing tool to convert movies, resize photos, and create so much more.
Flip (formally Flipgrid): News crew members can easily record their part for easy upload and editing. Not news crew? No problem! Flip gives students a chance to record their thoughts and responses in many forms in such a fun way!
Wixie: What an amazing tool to have writers create text and add images very quickly! We use this at WCE to publish 1st grade and older student's writing!
