Had a great day working with all of our 3rd grade classes preparing for CBT!

Glad I was able to share such an engaging and interactive resource with my colleagues! @marlborosd @GoMESDukes @MsAmodeoAP @ROBINHECHT @LumioSocial

The kids had a great time using the ozobots @MrMarallo shared with us! Today they finished their trails and used Google docs to write about their travels.

Mrs. Cantone and I had a great day working with @mccavara and her students today helping them experiment with and problem solve using @Ozobot! @marlborosd @GoMESDukes @MsAmodeoAP

A5: In this course, I hope to learn about new technology platforms that I can share with my staff and new ways to use existing platforms to enhance student learning. I also hope to share some of my own tech integration knowledge with others taking this class. #MCtechsavvy2

A4: Technology enhances project-based learning by giving students opportunities for collaboration. Tools like Google Slides & Jamboard facilitate student interaction that can occur anytime. Tools like @PlayCraftLearn allow for authentic ways to demonstrate learning. #MCtechsavvy2

A3: In my ideal classroom, students would each a touchscreen Chromebook. These devices allow students to annotate in real-time using tools such as @KamiApp. They also allow for engaging formative assessment using tools such as @quizizz , @Socrative & @PlayBlooket. #MCtechsavvy2

A2: Poll Everywhere's Word Cloud feature allows students to gauge popular opinions and for myself to gauge overall student understanding. Using this with students or colleagues allows discussions to evolve organically from participant input. #MCtechsavvy2

A1: I have used @polleverywhere with students to create word clouds on various topics and with colleagues to pre-assess familiarity with specific technology tools at the beginning of PD sessions. #MCtechsavvy2

My name is John Marallo, and I am a K-12 Technology Integration Specialist @marlborosd. I have been teaching in Marlboro for 18 years and I have also been an adjunct @MaristTcherEd for 10 years. Looking forward to learning lots from our course! #MCtechsavvy2

In #Jamboard, you can now move around elements like shapes, text boxes, and sticky notes by highlighting them and pressing arrow keys. This is particularly helpful for Ts and Ss who struggle with fine motor skills. It's the small things that make a huge difference 🙌🏽 #a11y
