Day 2 of our tech learning for teachers was a success! Integrating technology into instruction is not just about using an app or website. Teachers worked today on digging deeper into ways their students can interact with the technology including new ways to show their learning. Teachers also shared areas with each other on ways they integrate technology into their teaching. 🧡🖤🧡🖤
Pine has their air conditioning installed! 🎉🎉🎉 Unfortunately work at the other buildings is being held up due to delays in getting the AC units. We are hoping the weather starts to cool off a bit.
