Today was a Great Day!

The SAM Project is really beginning to take shape and this has encouraged me to set up a Blog to share the innovative project with others! Today I kicked off a guided reading group! I have been working closely with second grade and today met with a small group of students. I will be working with them on Tuesday and Thursday for the next two weeks and then will work my schedule to meet with them three days each week. They are a talented group of students and the time I spent with them was the most exciting part of my day. Additionally, I learned how to use the "clickers" for the SmartBoard and will present to the PTC general assembly tomorrow. Hopefully, we will be able to garner their support for four additional SmartBoards. It has been a productive week already in that it is only Tuesday and the two times that I have went to use the SmartBoard it has been checked out by teachers and is being utilized with students in the classroom. Most rewarding, is seeing that technology is being seamlessly incorporated into the curriculum - not as an "a side." All this in addition to attending Culver's Night, completing two evaluations, one post conference, two preconferences, and an impromptu meeting with teachers about report cards. I laugh when people ask me what I do all day. Day, what day? Life is good...
