Welcome back!

Opening day has come and gone.  You'd think we've been here for a month already, right? Routines are easy to fall into, try something different this year.  Your tech team is here to offer suggestions for "tech-ing" out our classroom.  Pick one, two or three things, keep them in your tool box, use them often, get comfortable.  Make technology a part of this year's routine.


Key tech tools to tackle for 2013-2014:

• Google Apps for Education
• Google Chrome
• A New Presentation tool- Prezi, Animoto, Voicethread, Glogster
• A New Formative Assessment tool- Socrative, Padlet, Google Forms (Flubaroo)

Contact Marisa Fiorito (Melissa Feinstein-sub), Maureen Miller, Brett Schwartz or Laurie Williams to assist you with reaching your "tech-spertise" goals.
