My Project

New school year, NEW SCHOOL, and new students willing and anxious to learn! After almost 20 years I made the very difficult decision to transfer to a new school and a new grade, with this decision came a new set of challenges. Due to cost and availability, technology is always a challenge for teachers. With a new document camera and projector, my students will be able to interact with me during whole group or small group Math and Social Studies lessons. Incorporating a projector and document camera into my everyday instruction will enhance my students ability to take notes, model learning, collaborate and share ideas.

EXEMPLARS ARE KEYS TO LEARNING

Students LOVE to have visual examples of what "good work" looks like. Using a camera and projector allows me to visually display directions, examples of student work, and student rubrics. In addition, I am able to model math and social studies lesson instruction LIVE as my students actively participate in learning.
