1st grade uses Popplets to collaborate

Mrs. Walker's class used a Popplet to show what they learned. Popplet is a collaborative brainstorming tool that allows users to visualize ideas. Teachers and students can create graphic organizers, timelines, and many other forms of visual organization.

Technology ROCKS!

Our 2nd graders used Kidspiration to summarize the different physical properties they can use to describe the different types of rocks.

Students working with Edmodo

Students have been enjoying working with Edmodo to complete assignments and projects. Edmodo provides teachers and students a secure place to connect and collaborate, share content and educational applications, and access homework, grades, class discussions and notifications. Here you see students creating a calendar to help pace themselves through an independent study.

Technology as a reading tool

In the Resource classrooms there are some great individualized programs that students can use and set their own pace. Students are motivated by the interactivity of the programs and teachers are able to monitor progress. Students in Ms. Juarez's class have access to books that will read to them to help them with sight words and new vocabulary.
