During my MC time today, I observed as Mr. Frame taught a positional words lesson on the Promtheian board to Kindergarten students. They loved it. After the lesson, we lined the kids up and did a real life demonstration with them. I covet the board in the MC because my grade level does not have any yet, even though we are required to incorporate technology into our lessons at least once a week. I purchased my own projector this year and I haul my laptop back and forth to school each and every day. What a pain! We joke about how the fourth grade technology section of the lesson plans should say "use overhead projector." I feel that I will certainly be a more understanding MS, especially since I am living in a technological wasteland! I will certainly be more understanding! We do have ELMOs to check out, but folks tend to hog them. Mr. Frame has them on a limited three day check out. However, when teachers check them out, they never return them on time. Therefore, it is not a wise move to make lesson plans that revolve around ELMOs because you probably won't get one without a fight!
