About

Welcome to Ms. Zimmer’s technology blog!

I am the full time technology facilitator at Avoca West Elementary School in Glenview, Illinois. I primarily teach 4th and 5th grade Encore Technology, a project-based technology enrichment class. In Encore Tech we use a number of technology tools for our projects like iPhoto, iMovie, Photoshop, GarageBand, iTunes, KidPix, Safari, Scratch, Google Apps and Comic Life. This year we also started blogging with WordPress!
