Triptico

Triptico is a great set of resources developed for teachers, and they are free!  I added the premium membership last year for around $24, mostly to add the student group app, which will automatically create student groups for you.  Two other apps I can't live without at this point: Student Selector PLUS, which will randomly select a student from your group and the Circle Timer, which will visually show your students how much time is left in an activity.

This resource is a great one for ALL grade levels.

A New Challenge!

 This year, I am taking on a new role that will be a very exciting challenge.  I am working with teachers on better integrating technology into their classrooms.  As a D.R. (Differentiated Role) Blended Learning Lead, I will be working with a cohort of 6 teachers.  It will be up to them to decide what kind of role they want me to play in their technology integration.





My plan for this space is to:
  • document resources for teachers to access at their convenience
  • highlight great technology integration that is happening in my school
  • share research and ideas that I come across as I collaborate with my own cohort in this role
  • document my growth as a teacher leader and coach
I am very anxious to get going and excited to see what this year will bring!
