Technology to the Rescue! 2-6-09

This week, we have found that having the science and math textbooks available online has been a blessing. With multiple tests approaching in both subjects, parents are complaining that the books are too heavy for the children to bring home night after night to prepare. It has been wonderful to be able to refer them once again to the online link to access. This has also saved the day when homework has been forgotten in math, we can easily assign a few problems from the day’s lesson to work on. It has also been terrific to have the books online so that we can project the image of the page we are on when reading in science or working out problems in math. Planning at home has been much easier as well since teachers can access the Teacher’s Guide and accompanying workbooks from home without having to carry everything! What a load off our backs – literally!!!
