End of my time with Old Navy

IN about 2 hours Old Navy at Courtland will be closed forever. I had worked there for the past 2 and 1/2 years. I began there in the summer of 2005 as a way to earn some money to help cover a drop in pay when our school was absorded back into the district.
I really enjoyed my time there. I could have left after we became more finacialy stable but I found that I enjoyed the work and esspecially the others that worked there.
I wish the best of luck to all my co-workers as they continue with Old Navy somewhere else or at some other job.
Peace all.

I have agreed to present at a virtual conference in Feb. The Discovery Educator Network has put togther a conference for though that are a part of the DEN, and anyone who is interested in intregration of technology in education.
Now this is my first big time presentation and I am just a smidge nervous. Well, more than a bit nervous. But, I need to do presentiation as I am in a professional career and I have to start sometime.
Here is the link to the DEN post of the conference.


Went to the section conference for AYSO this past weekend. I am the coach for my son's U6 boys team in town. I learned a lot about how to run my practices...excuse me the team's training sessions. I am excited about the spring season and if I am still involved in coaching next year with the U8 team Sam will be on I am better prepared to be able to handle it.

Peace everyone.

Happy new year every one!

I hope your holidays were good to you and your family. My boys had a blast and are enjoying their loot. Today’s the last day of vacation for me. My wife and Sam went back last Thursday. They had a snow day on Wed.

As I had not posted anything in a while (the whole break) I thought I would try to put something up. I have 2 websites that I put together for my EDMT (Educational Media Technology) courses at EMU. The first was my first stab at a site. It is pretty simple and has not been updated in a while.

1st website

The second is my professional site that I should be adding to as I continue along the EDMT program track and in my teaching. There are a few neat links and projects I put together at that site.

I also have a blog at Discovery Education as a part of the Discovery Educator Network.
Here is that link.

Well time to get back with the boys, they are just getting up and they will be hungry.

Peace.
