Another week has come and gone. The preschool households have all been built and the phone directory has been distributed, so two of my largest projects have been completed. That's a good feeling!
We had our first district TRT meeting at the primary school on Thursday. As I told the building TRTs, I'm going to try to start getting out into the schools next week and the remainder of September just to visit classrooms. I'd like to start this new process of having a District TRT by finding out what lessons teachers are giving that could be done using technology of some sort. I know a lot of our teachers are using technology each and every day, but I also know there are some teachers who could definitely utilize technology more in their classrooms. I hope by starting simple - visiting classrooms and seeing where technology could be used - will be a good way to let teachers know what is available and how easy it is to integrate technology into their everyday lessons.
I hope all of you are finding my District TRT newsletter helpful. I want to use it as a way to give you some Web sites to view (and hopefully use) and to keep everyone informed of what is happened across the district and throughout the state. In future editions, I plan to add some technology tips and maybe even spotlight a classroom or two where technology is just one part of delivering content to the students successfully.
