The Epson projector is an important tool in our classroom. I use the projector daily to provide my students with visually enhanced lessons in math, language arts, science, and social studies. Students rely on the resource to follow along when I am teaching lessons. I am able to model as well as guide students in writing activities, such as writing a well developed paragraph. In addition, students have the opportunity to display and share their work with the group to make changes. A teacher without a projector is extremely limited in the impact of their lesson. Just as some students learn by tactile sensation, some learn best visually.
