Working with a new teacher for cycle 2. History 7 is studying the Renaissance, and the teacher asked me to assist him with some interesting museum VR and possibly creating skits for Flipgrid.
He is fairly new to teaching and traditionally assigns paper/pencil activities to his students, but he is willing to try new things. I'm anxious to get started with his classes!
The big deal is the arrival of the Chromebooks so generously donated to us from Digital Promise! We are over the moon and can't wait to surprise the staff with the roll out of all the new devices!
Bright spots.....
So many to choose from!
Blogging with 8th grade ELA
Apple TV up and running with daily announcements in the cafeteria
Apple TV
Chromebook Stations/Interactive presentations in ELA7
Screencastify lesson plans on classroom
Nearpod, Flipgrid, and Peardeck, OH, MY!
I scrounged up 19 IPads and brought them to one of the math teachers. I said, "Hey, do you think you'd like to give these a try with your students?' She said, "Why not!" I cannot get them away from her! "Very Appy Teacher!"
Trying to work on using Technology to combat behavior issues....biggest bright spot yet? Tech Lounge as the monthly PBIS Incentive!!!
