Blended Learning Centers at Tansey!

Students in the Kindergarten and First Grade Classrooms at Tansey Elementary School have been busy using laptops daily during centers time. During the past two weeks I have been working closely with Mrs. Daniel's first grade students during both ELA and Math centers. Students use the laptops once daily completing either the ELA online activity (linked from Mrs. Daniel's webpage) or Dreambox Math.

Mrs. DeCoste's Flipped 4th grade Math Classroom!

Mrs. DeCoste's 4th Grade students recently demonstrated a few Math Strategies they have been using for parents to learn how to support their children from home as well as students being able to revisit some strategies on their own!

Glogs and Blogs...

For the last few weeks I've been meeting with 5th grade students in Mrs. Hanley's classes at the Greene School introducing them to a class webpage, blog and how to use glogster.com.  Mrs. Hanley has taken the time to create a school webpage in which she updates families on class happenings, as well as posts links to her class Blog where she is posting videos and class discussion topics. She has also created Glogster accounts for all her students to create an online poster for an upcoming Endangered Animal project. I really love the videos she has posted on her blog and the discussion questions for students to comment and think about. It's a way of bringing real life happenings into the classroom. Check out her webpage and blog here!!
