CLASSROOM MOTTO:
“Never Say You Can’t Do It because You CAN!”
PROUDEST MOMENT OF YOUR EDUCATION CAREER:
When I walked into a class and saw that the students were showing their teacher how to use a tech tool that I had just taught them…and they were Pros at it!
WHY DID YOU WANT TO BECOME A BUNCEE AMBASSADOR?
I am just awed with what an easy and unique product Buncee is. I have been teaching technology for ten years now. Prior to using Buncee, my Second Grade Students were creating presentations in PowerPoint. It was difficult and time-consuming. Buncee is so much easier to teach, and students are off and running in no time! I introduced Buncee to First Graders and then turned them loose. They picked it up so fast! Right away, they were creating. In fact, I presented and shared how I am using Buncee with my students at EdCamp Citrus. I also began posting a daily creation on Twitter under the #ABunceeADay hashtag ~ a simple, positive way to spread the Buncee Joy! Buncee has definitely become my new tool for our students to use in Technology Class and in the Library.
