Mrs. Yerkey’s Classroom Edit display name

Students in my traditional and digital classes spend a great deal of time looking at evidence-based studies and learning how to filter through sound research. My students create research projects on fad diets, the significance of sleep, the importance of hydration, potentially harmful chemicals in everyday products, and how to train smarter, not harder for lifelong fitness. Students work very hard and do a fantastic job on these projects and almost all students choose a digital platform for their final product since I now teach in both worlds; traditional and digital. We would like to play these visual presentations on media platforms within the building and the fitness center is the ideal place as so many students, staff, and community members use it. Not only would having a mounted smart TV in our fitness center help promote the work students have done it would also be used as a teaching tool during lessons in our AB schedules ( I teach both in-person and to our digital students at the same time). We would all be able to see each other and I can launch my google meet on the TV so I can see students from all areas of my classroom (the fitness center) and interact with them. I am unable to do this at this time because my computer screen is too small.
