I believe that the first question that should always be asked when talking about change in schools is "Is this what is best for kids?"

I am a PE teacher at Hoover Elementary School in Salem, Oregon. I enjoy teaching PE and I enjoy integrating technology into my instruction. I am always attempting to make lessons more interesting and easy to follow. Many times that means I get to include some sort of technology. I am very excited to help others best implement technology into their lessons but only when it will make the lesson better.

I always ask myself if the additional technology is going to make my lesson more accessible to the students. If it is not in the best interest of the students I look elsewhere for solutions.

Join me in always starting the conversation with "Is this what is best for kids?".
