Hello, Everyone! I'm sorry it's been a while since I've posted. Things have been a little topsy-turvy since my job was dissolved and I'm not sure where I'll be for next year, yet.

Now, about SMART- it's HERE! Notebook 11 is here and it's really AWESOME! I am linking an article written by James Hollis on Teacher Love SMART Boards. There are short descriptions on a few of the new features and a couple of videos to watch!

Music!!

I just found out that after 14 years as a Technologist that I am being "cut" and sent back to the classroom. I am certified in Elementary Music and that's what I plan to teach. So, I would like to share some ways to use the SMART board in Music!

Here is a good interactive site to discuss the "mood" of music:
