Great job guys! I'd like to see more time to actually create a lesson next time with you "pros" right there to assist when problems arise! You both ROCK!

This was a very fun and interactive workshop that will benefit my students engage in meaningful mathematics.

I found ways to embed questioning into the SMART board lessons and use great interactive tools that will enrich student learning.

I loved this class. We should have this class all the time. There are a lot of things we can learn from each other.

Nice to be able to network with other same grade-level teachers. It was also great to have time to actually work on a SMART lesson with tech assistance readily available.

I needed this time and instruction to gain confidence in working with the Smartboard. Time is a big issue---- if we could share more then WE WOULD HAVE SO MUCH MORE--tonight was great.

I loved the ideas and examples of smartboard lessons. The time to work on lessons of our own was great. Time is always a problem so I really like the idea of sharing lessons and ideas across the district. I really liked the idea of posting questions with the lessons that give kids a chance to think at a higher level.

What a great class. I was not aware of any of these activities. These activities are very usable everyday!
Thanks

I felt so inept at the beginning of this class. However, with the help of our coaches they brought the skills down to my level. I do look forward to the next class to get to the next step.

This class was really useful. It is nice to have time to experiment with Smartboard software..... especially since I don't have much experience with it!

I had fun learning how to use the tools in the gallary like the enhanced resources. Thanks for sharing the secrets of the trade. I feel more confident in creating exciting lessons(if only I had the time)but I will try.

You two make inservices fun. I really appreciate have the time for hands-on exploration with the SMART materials.

Now we need SMART boards to really get the kids involved.

It is amazing to find the tools that really are the bells and whistles that kids need to keep them engaged! Thank you for the time to create new lessons!!

I really appreciate having the time for hands-on exploration with the SMART materials. It's very helpful to have independent time with support.

Now we need SMART boards to really get the kids involved! Even a few per building would really help.


Thanks so much for making learning fun! =-)

Thank for the motivating experience. I am excited to work on lessons even though I don't have a smart board. Keep up the good work.

Great workshop! I found it very helpful. I'm excited to try to implement the use of my SMART board into more of my math lessons. Thanks for showing us all the little SMART "tricks"! : )Now...if we only had MORE time to make a complete lesson! I'm looking forward to the next workshop and to hopefully have that time with your support to get some lessons done. Thanks!
