Teacher's Convention

Hello! 
I just finished doing two presentations at the teacher's convention. I am always my own worst critic! I wonder if anyone will find what I have to say is valuable or not. I know it is my own mind! It is nice to meet and chat with other teachers. I also think I need to learn more about technology so I can upload my presentations so people can access and print if they need. I have a steep learning curve! 
Plus I am angling to get a new laptop! I really wouldlike a bigger one with a bigger screen (and faster!) We will see!
Anyway I will try to put up pictures of things I did in my workshop.
I love making things for my classroom and doing projects (especially art and science and math! Who am I kidding? I really love it all!) Except for maybe report cards!!
