Describe the highlight of your week at the KFP Summer Institute.<\/strong><\/p>\n The highlight of my week was simply being surrounded by enthusiastic, passionate, positive<\/em> educators. Though we’re all a bit soggy, I think we’re all leaving this experience with as much or more than we put into it.<\/p>\n How do you plan to implement something you learned at the institute in your classroom?<\/strong><\/p>\n The tools, tips, and techniques I’ve learned this week at the Kenan Fellows Program Summer Institute are plentiful, and I am so excited to implement some of them in my classroom. I am particularly interested in trying a few of the sites and apps that Eric Rowles and my fellow Kenan Fellows shared, like DJ Earworm, Powtoon, and goformative. I also plan on connecting with parents via Twitter and\/or Instagram this coming school year; my hope is to use one of these platforms to better showcase what is going on in my classroom on a daily basis. My kids are awesome and they’re doing awesome things – the community should know that! In a time when students are connected to technology every hour of every day, I hope these tools will help me provide relevant instruction for my classes.<\/p>\n How has the week compared with other PD opportunities you have attended?<\/strong><\/p>\n Quite simply, this week was phenomenal. As far as teaching techniques, networking and support, and professional growth, it was the <\/em>best opportunity I’ve attended. I am coming away from this invigorated and eager to experience my fellowship, develop a quality product, and grow overall as an educator.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Describe the highlight of your week at the KFP Summer Institute.
