Hello!
My name is Kyle and I am brand new to the world of blogging so please lower your expectations right now! I teach Physical Education at Steeple Run Elementary in District 203 in Naperville and have been there for the last 10 years. I am married and have a 2 year old daughter at home who loves bike rides to the park and anything that is not sitting!
I enjoy learning about technology in education and the fast pace that it moves. I have asked my elementary students for help with technology in my classroom many times and I will openly admit it. They are a great resource! It's amazing to me how quick students can pick up on technology and also how their engagement level increases when using technology in the classroom. Our district will be entirely 1:1 this next school year and I am excited to see how that changes things. Our 2nd-5th graders will have Chromebooks and the K-1 grades will be 2:1 with ipads. I think this will open up some new opportunities for our students in P. E. and I am excited to create some new ideas to incorporate technology into PE. My favorite technology tool in my classroom is undoubtedly connecting my school ipad to appleTV which is then projected on to a large screen. I use this every single day with almost every class. I'm looking forward to incorporating more technology in the future.
Stay tuned!
