MRS. WEDDINGTON
![]() |
Mrs. Weddington sharing with her 3rd grade students. She always brings a great attitude to work. This is her 40th year! |
Q. How long have you been teaching? This is my 40th year of teaching.
Q. What grade do you teach or have taught? I teach 3rd grade, which I truly love. My class is wonderful! My experience encompasses all elementary grades, as well as several years as a media specialist.
Q. How has your first quarter and a half went with BL implementation? I was apprehensive at first and not quite certain about the outcome. I had always felt that whole-group teaching kept me in control. Now that I feel more comfortable, I have truly changed my style of teaching. I have been able to let go and be more of a facilitator.
Q. How has BL changed your thoughts about teaching? I feel more confident in taking risks outside my comfort zone. The technology component has changed my entire style of teaching. If someone had asked me about paperless teaching a year ago, I wouldn't believe it could be done. My opinion has definitely changed, and I am now ready to convince other non-believers.
Q. If you had one word to describe BL what would say and why? Self-Reinvention I have taken a good look at the way I taught in the past and am now convinced that BL is a positive change.
