Introduction

Hello all!!!  My name is Megan Hester and I grew up in Calera, AL.  I am married and have a very loving and energetic daughter named Aubri Lane.  She is my world.  Currently, I am getting my Master’s in elementary education. I graduated from UAB in 2013 with a BS in Physical Education.  I have the honor to work at Centre Elementary as the physical education teacher.  I have been there for almost three years and love it!  I love teaching my kids.  My career aspirations are to give my students a positive experience in my classroom, be a positive role model, encourage their little minds, and always continue learning.  I’m interested in learning new technology to bring in my classroom. I do have a twitter account only because I had to set one up while at UAB.  I really don’t know a lot about twitter but the upcoming assignment should put things into perspective for me.  I do have Facebook to keep up with my friends and family.  I would like to learn about Smart Boards because I know that classroom teachers really enjoy them.  I do use technology in my classroom (the gym).  I have a projector and 15x15 screen that allows me to show my students anything I need to from my computer.  We are able to play the Wii fit, dance to videos, listen to music, or show them instructional videos.  I have a MacBook Pro and love it.  I also have an iPad, iPad mini for my daughter, and an iPhone.  I’m excited about this semester!  Good luck everyone!
