Tech Tuesday
As part of your checkout process this year, you will be given a chromebook. Play with it this summer, explore ways you can use these in the classroom in a variety of subjects. I have also included a picture of what is called the SAMR wheel. This is a technology version of blooms taxonomy. It might be a great starting point for your journey this summer. The website has an interactive version of this that allows you to get basic information about each app that is included on the wheel:

Next fall, we will continue with Tech Tuesdays as we continue to learn together new ways to integrate the technology we have in to our classrooms.
