Technology in the Classroom

I appreciate all the input given by students, staff, and parents in the discussion on PED's in our school. A recent activity I led with our staff included using a Wiki - the first time for many.

Obviously, this made me think about our classrooms and our students. We certainly do use technology on a daily basis at GKMS.

What are some uses of technology that you enjoy using in your classes? What are some activities that you think should incorporate technology but currently do not? What are some tools we don't have, that you think would benefit students? So many questions...

GKMS Moments

The school year is not over! There is plenty of valuable instruction and social time for all students to continue to learn and grow. However, now is a good time to reflect on the things we’ve learned so far and what GKMS means to us all.

Personally, I value being principal at this great school. I enjoy working with our students and staff each day to help create a positive environment where kids learn, mature, and have fun. I also enjoy working with parents to help kids succeed, problem solve, or just talk for a few minutes.

I know students, parents, and staff members also have many positive experiences to share about life at GKMS, and I am interested in hearing some of them. As we enter the final quarter of the year, let us know some of the things you value at GKMS. And, as our 8th graders near promotion to the high school, what are some of your favorite GKMS memories?

Please, take a few minutes and share a GKMS moment with us, and remember not to use any student last names. Thanks.
