My name is Arielle Goldstein and I am a New Jersey native. I enjoy reading, listening to music, and most of all traveling. You will never find me anywhere in the world without a book or my iPhone or iPad.
I have a Masters Degree in Educational Technology and another on in Elementary Educations (K-8). In December 2014 I will have completed by Supervisor Certificate.
Currently I work in a NJ elementary school as a Media Teacher integrating informational literacy skills and technology skills into the K-4 curriculum. Each project is planned and taught alongside classroom teachers to smoothly integrate content and technology.
Throughout the K-8 district I am a Technology Leader constantly learning about new technologies and working with my team to inform and education our staff.
Along with my teaching schedule I maintain Chromebooks, iPads, Macbooks, and other technology within the school. I am a GAFE Admin for the school district.
With my partner in STEAM I completed a trial year and now fully implemented a K-4 STEAM program. Teachers have a STEAM room stocked with materials, lesson ideas, training, and support throughout the year to implement a school-wide STEAM program.
When I’m not in school I’m home with my two Old English Sheepdog and spending time with family.

- Quote: “I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living. It’s a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope. Which is what I do. And that enables you to laugh at life’s realities.”
