In Math we have been working on "Balanced Math Equations" and understanding the true meaning of the "=" sign. We brought in digital learning by doing 2 different activities relating to this concept. The first activity involved having the students use the "StoryKit" app to create a "book" on Balanced Equations.( A big shout out to Mrs. Delia for teaching us this!) The students learned how to create a title page and then had to create at least 2 other pages in which they had to write equations that were balanced and prove how they knew they were balanced.
After doing this activity, the students were asked to take a true/false quiz that I created using QR codes. The students scanned the QR codes using the QuickScan app. They had an answer sheet to record on. An example of a question: 3 + 5 = 6 + 1 is a balanced equation. The students then had to circle true or false on their answer sheet.
We had a great time using our devices to enhance our learning, and I am excited to create more lessons!

Early Release Day - Staff members are tech learners, too!
While our students were home enjoying their time off from school on our 2/13 Early Release Day, BCES staff members Brought Their Own Device to different professional development sessions. One team's focus was investigating technology tools to help promote students' mastery of math vocabulary. Mrs. Boylan, Mrs. Carter, Mrs. Collins, Mrs. D'Elia, Mrs. Hunsberger, Ms. Page & Mrs. Shearer had fun learning and brainstorming ways they can use Linoit and the StoryKit app with students. #lifelonglearners #technologyrocks
