My Project

I can see clearly now the fuzz is gone. Most classrooms have a Smartboard. For the past twelve years, I have had to "make do" with a whiteboard. I am grateful to the school for the document camera that I received 12 years ago; however, an upgrade is desperately needed.

My students would benefit from this new technology.

I believe in the "Gradual Release Model". I do, we do and then you do. My students will be able to clearly see me annotate text before being instructed to try this one on their own. While I would prefer a Smartboard, a quality projector and document camera are the next best thing. I am hoping to end the year strong and start the next year fresh with new technology for my classroom.
