I am the 8th grade technology teacher at Ames Middle School. I adore my wife Samie and our beautiful daughter Margo. I also love golf and all of my animals.

Using VR and creating with ⁦@tiltbrush⁩. It really is incredible what these students can make. #isitmyturn

@MrDsDreamTeam would be proud. We are making text based games and some of his students are modeling theirs after their favorite books! #tech #literacy

Ed tech coaches are no longer optional. They are necessary for transformation. #ISTE19

@Nick_Proud What does it take for a principal to lead in a technology rich environment? What is your biggest challenge? #UNIEdlead #IAedchat

Tom Haggas of Cheshire Moon Films spent two full days this week working with @AmesMiddle students on film production. Rule of thirds, shooting interviews, and editing on action was all part of the crash course. #AmesCSD

[Grant Walker @gmwalker21]

Learning from the pros today on how to create some movies. HUGE thanks to Tom from Cheshire Moon Films for all his help. They have learned way more than I could ever teach them. #AMSleads

Doing some animation on keynote today. Check out our self portraits! #i11i

[Grant Walker @gmwalker21]

Had a blast presenting with this kid today. She absolutely killed her presentation. Glad she could make me look good! #i11i #AMSleads

[Grant Walker @gmwalker21]

You can’t see her, but @BeecherVirginia was featured as this students “favorite teacher” in her google tour. We will see if she remains the favorite teacher after my class 😉

[Grant Walker @gmwalker21]

Students watching student created tours. Such a fun way to share your story. #AMSleads

I send two texts out after every practice before I drive home. One to someone who really shined, one to someone who needs encouragement. Small habits show love to your team and grow relationships.

[Grant Walker @gmwalker21]

Every time I use this text-based game to introduce myself to my students I have to thank ⁦@GBLedu⁩. Students are always engaged in this activity!
