This weekend Maria and I are presenting at the California League of Schools Tech Conference in Monterey. It is an exciting new adventure for us. An opportunity to share what we know and how we utilize technology in our classroom, as well as gaining new knowledge that we can bring back to our class, site, and fellow teachers.
Sounds awesome right? It is...only...well, I am a nervous wreck. I do not know why but I am always a nervous wreck the night before, morning of, and during the first part of any training I have presented. Presenting with Maria has helped to alleviate, but not completely dissipate the way I get worked up about presenting. Why this is, or how to prevent it from happening is something that I am working on. It is my hope that the more I present the less my nerves will get to me but for now....well, now I am worried that I will be getting very little sleep tonight in anticipation of tomorrow's sessions (yes, plural).
So here is to tomorrow, and to presenting without fear. I promise to add an update as to how it went if I survive. :)
