About

Welcome to Technology in Early Childhood!

I’m so glad you stopped by.

I am a former elementary school teacher. I am a certified teacher with a degree in Elementary Education and an endorsement in Early Childhood Education. Technology is my hobby and I loved finding ways to weave it into early childhood curriculum.

I have dabbled in writing code (aka program computers.)  I started out teaching my students the basics of programming and became interested in to learning to program myself.  I’ve built a few different websites from scratch. Now I work full time in my digital marketing agency specializing in Facebook, Instagram & Pinterest ads for education businesses.

I am mom to two children who make fantastic app testers and am married to a wonderful man who supports my writing efforts, graciously listening to me ramble on about my latest ideas and plans.

Even though I’m not still in the classroom, I love creating resources for teaching with technology in early childhood classrooms.

Here are links to a couple of posts I’ve written about why I’m writing on this website and my thoughts about the place of technology in early childhood classrooms:
