Hello everyone! My name is Amanda McCristal and I am a first year Physical Education teacher for students K-2. Although I am certified K-12, my heart is definitely at the elementary level! I have a secondary English certification and am working toward my MAED Masters in Literacy Education to broaden my horizons of the English curriculum as well. I am ever amazed by technology and its impact in the classroom, and am currently working on setting up an Apple TV and Wi-Fi access in our gym to project students movements on the large screen from a donation we have received from a nearby foundation in honor of a PE teacher we lost in our district this past year. I am so excited to learn about the many ways technology can be incorporated into the curriculum and cannot wait to get started! Thanks!

Amanda
