Ramirez drops the decibels in her classroom! @WISDCannan #CannanMVPs #WillisISD

Ramirez and her classroom "Voice-O-Meter"! She made it using printed

circles and stick-on lights from the discount store. The kids love it, and she is able to control the noise level.🏈

Cannan teachers attend our first T3 technology PD! Spreading the word that the WISD SSO is the way to go! @WISDCannan #CannanMVPs #WillisISD #icoachesconnect

We always have a fantastic time and fun with friends at Cannan's T3 trainings! We had a fabulous turnout of 21 attendees! Thanks to all my dear friends who came by to get a slice of Cinnamon Coffee Cake, a jeans pass, door prizes, swag, and some technology learning!

My goal this year is to encourage teachers and students to use the WISD Single Sign On (SSO), also called Hello ID, to access their district and campus apps. Teachers and the older students can sign on with their WISD credentials, and get instant access to many of our applications and online resources. The younger students can use the generic credentials, which gets them accustomed to signing in to access all the cool resources our district and campus provides for us!

I absolutely love Cannan to the moon and back, and I cannot WAIT for all the fun things we will do this school year! Right now we are Mapping away with the NWEA, but once that phase of testing is over and the BOY data is gathered, we will continue to engage and innovate instruction with instructional technology!

E. B. Cannan's daughter, Millie Jeffers, interviewed & filmed by Tech Crew @WISDCannan #WillisISD #CannanMVPs

Our campus was named for Mr. E. B. Cannan, former music director at Willis High School. Our students interviewed and filmed Mrs. Jeffers as she told the story of when Mr. Robert P. Brabham called Mr. Cannan on the phone and told him a new elementary school in Willis ISD was going to be named after him. Mr. Cannan's daughter said her dad was so astonished and proud! He was also a very humorous gentleman and said, jokingly, "at least they are not naming an outhouse after me!" Mrs. Jeffers told many stories of her father's humor, kindness, and love of the students in Willis ISD and his community. We thoroughly enjoyed the student interview, to be replayed using Google videos in the classrooms.
