MONICA HERNANDEZ EDUC 630

About Me: I served my country faithfully and honorably as a former U.S. Marine for 22 years. I understand how people learn, and I currently serve as an Instructional Aide at an elementary school located in Jacksonville, North Carolina. My spouse was also a U.S. Marine who served proudly for 26 years, and we have two children; my son is in his 3rd year of college, and our daughter is a sophomore in high school. My hobbies include watching documentaries, crocheting, and thrifting with my daughter on weekends. My love for GOD is unwavering, and I still do not know what I want to be when I grow up.

TECHNOLOGY TYPES

The types of technology that I enjoy are the learning contextual ones that my students love to use for educational purposes. I like Boddle Learning, which is an interactive game that can be set up to teach different mathematical concepts. I also like to use IReady Math and Reading because these two sites provide students with a pathway they can work on all year. Audiobooks like Storynory, Lit2Go, and the local library resource Hoopla are great tools to use for Gen Ed and Exceptional Children (EC), providing them with headphones, so they can listen to stories and tutorials and work independently.
