Technology in the Classroom at Morley Elementary School

The Smart Board is used almost everyday in my Tuesday Experience classroom. The fourth graders respond very well to the use of technology in the classroom; Mr. B successfully employs the Smart Board into a wide variety of lessons. In particular, the students are learning about division and fractions - the Smart Board is a great tool to help foster learning because students are able to interactively participate in front of the class.

I would highly recommend the Smart Board to all school systems as well as Saint Joseph College because it is an invaluable resource that students seem to truly enjoy. Perhaps, an observation can be made in my fourth grade classroom by those who have yet to see the Smart Board used in the classroom. If anyone is interested in observing, feel free to comment to this post and I will talk to Mr. B about setting up a convenient time to stop in. Feel free to ask questions about what I have observed as well!
