Technology in My Classroom

Promethean Board–I am using my Promethean Board to share morning responsibilites, homework, and other events happening on that day.

iPads–My third graders use their iPads throughout the day and specifically during guided reading rotations, for assessments, and to do research occasionally.

• HMH Waggle
  • an app that is used for benchmark assessments and for practicing math skills based on those assessments.
