The first-wave of LCSD employees received a surprise today; it was courtesy of MUNA Federal Credit Union. Here are highlights from @TrojanNation11. #LCSDExcellence

@LauderdaleCSD @TrojanNation11 We were so appreciative of the treat! 🥰

@NEMSsquad @NEMSTrojans @LauderdaleCSD I’m so proud of all these kids, but I’m especially proud of the one that belongs to me! ❤️

I love seeing anything about how librarians/school library media specialists help students and schools! I can't wait to get started...I've just got to finish up my degree/certification and find a job. Easy peasy! 😉 #LibrarianProblems #gradschool #changingtheworld

I’m on a tight schedule today and don’t have time to wander the grocery store. Gotta love it when they collect your groceries, bring them to the car, plus give you a goody bag! 😊 #WalmartGroceryPerk #WalmartGroceryPickup

@jmattmiller I'm looking forward to it!! 🤩

[Christy Allen @MrsChristyA]

I can't wait to check out @jmattmiller's #DitchSummit online conference over the holiday "break!" When I get back to the classroom next year, I want to have a bunch of new strategies to reach & empower my students. Sign up is FREE at https://t.co/zv2DCQiWDU #teachergoals

Gotta love grad school exams! I had never heard of a "library commons" before. In 3 hours, I learned what they are & how to effectively create one & wrote a proposal for implementing one in the library of the school where I used to work before I became a SAHM. #lifelonglearning😀

[Christy Allen @MrsChristyA]

@specialtechie Thanks! I'm enjoying it, but it's a teeny bit overwhelming...it goes so FAST! I'll get it all read eventually though...🙂

[Christy Allen @MrsChristyA]

@Mrs_McPherson16 I read through last night's #edtechchat about coding, and it was really interesting. I enjoyed reading the opinions of other Ts about the importance of coding and how it's implemented (or not) in their schools. #UWAed505fa2 #edtech #teachergoals #lifelonglearning

[Christy Allen @MrsChristyA]

I can't wait to add more #edtech to my class! The #OK2Ask #twitterchat that @Mrsmcclellan10 shared with me sounds great. Their next chat is on Dec 6th at 7pm CST & will focus on using #socialmedia to increase #studentengagement. It's going to be great! #UWAed505fa2

[Christy Allen @MrsChristyA]

I had planned to join tonight's #edtechchat, but family kept me busy until it was over. I had never done an Hour of Code before last wk, but once I tried it & learned more, I saw why it would be useful & important. I read through the chat & loved it! I'll be back another time!

[Christy Allen @MrsChristyA]

@SFLOK2Ask @Mrsmcclellan10 I just put it in my planner! 🙂 I'm looking forward to checking it out.

[Christy Allen @MrsChristyA]

I hadn't done any coding prior to this weekend, but now I understand and wholeheartedly support this statement about everyone learning code! #UWAed505fa2 #lifelonglearning #edtech

Hour Of Code Can Happen Anytime. Here’s How: https://t.co/R9BwdOVBN6 #edchat #edtech

This totally justifies my huge home library, right? My kids have always read above grade level, and they all like to read, so I'm going to say it's justified! #lifelonglearning #bibliophile #lovebooks #futurelibrarian

I’m looking forward to my first Twitter #edtechchat tonight at 8 pm CST! I hadn’t heard of Twitter chats before my #UWAed505fa2 class, but now I’m excited to see what else I can learn! #lifelonglearning #edtech

[Christy Allen @MrsChristyA]

@NieshaH88212214 This should be a great conference! I probably won't get to go, but I've followed MECA on Twitter so I can stay up to date on what they have going on. Thanks for sharing! #UWAed505fa2

[Christy Allen @MrsChristyA]

@fhs_Cometti I would have loved to check this out when I was teaching AP! I only taught it for one year, and I struggled. It would have been nice to meet veteran teachers who could maybe have helped me get my bearings! #UWAed505fa2

Teacher Librarian: The Journal for School Library Professional (@TeacherLibrn) is a great resource! It includes info that's helpful to all Ts, such as app & website reviews and articles about information technology & internet resources! https://t.co/7levNEwMiQ #UWAed505fa2
