Continued use of Clickers throughout the 17/18 school year.

Clickers are the quickest way to insure that every student answers questions and learns from drilling of large amounts of material that I’ve found!

Continued use of SMART SLATE throughout the 17/18 school year.

The Smart Slate is a very powerful tool that allows me to teach from any part of the room and still control the display board!
