How do you share over 20 years of teaching experience? Start a blog? Sure, why not.

Lisa Ceja June 1995 - First Year Teacher - square cropI recently came across some old photos from my first year of teaching.  I started in September of 1994 and it is now 2016. Go ahead and do the math. This photo was taken in June of 1995 at the end of my first year and I can see that I am signing yearbooks.  I have nJune 1995 - Lisa Ceja and 2 studentso idea where these students are now but I pray they are well and happy.  What I do know is how much all my students taught me that year.  I am hopeful that they learned some math that year amidst all the craziness from a very young, but very excited teacher.  You can see I’m smiling in this photo, and am still smiling over 20 years later.

I continue to work for the same amazing district and am in love with my job and my students.  I  immerse myself completely in whatever I am passionate about.  And right now EdTech has revamped my classroom and continues to “Wow” me every day.  My PLN (Professional Learning Network) has encouraged me to start a blog to share my learning and discovery along the way.  This is why I named this blog “Exploring the TECH in TEaCHer” to honor that TECH is a part of TEaCHer and every day is an exploration for me of how the two connect.

I look forward to sharing my past, present, and future experiences so that I might help others maybe a bit of a fraction that the beautiful & helpful world of my PLN and other Bloggers have generously helped me.
