OMS Technology Tips
September 22, 2016
Hello from your Technology Coach!
Hello Oakdale family! I just wanted to send out this little flier with some helpful ed tech tools for you to try out in your classroom. I also wanted to let you know that I am available to help you plan and integrate technology into the classroom. Currently, I am available before school 7:00-7:50 and during my planning periods period 2 and period 4. However, once volleyball season is over on October 20th, I will be available to help you plan after school as well!
Technology PLC
I'm hoping to continue our after school technology training that have been so successful! Please let me know if there is a certain technology tool you would like a training on.
Survey!
I know we have had to do a ton of surveys lately, but I would really appreciate it if you would complete this technology survey so I can see how I can help you!
Book Study
Two years ago I ran a book study on Teach Like a Pirate and it was a huge success!! If you would be interested in doing another book study on Ditch That Textbook! (a book all about integrating technology), Learn Like a PIRATE (a book all about student centered learning), or Explore Like a PIRATE (incorporating gamification in the the classroom) please let me know. Another option could be Moonshots in Education ( this book focuses on mechanics of blended learning).
Something new to think about...
Updated KWL Chart
I found an interesting blog post about updated KWL Charts. I love how this chart puts the learning in students hands! If you would like help finding ways to incorporate ways to do this in your class contact me!
