T Charter School

B asked me to help out with a project for another school. I looked up weather vocabulary (hurricane, snow, ...) images and Websites. I put these along with the word for each onto Powerpoint Slides so that he could use them on the Promethean board at the other school.

B, P(the principal), K (who works with the tech grant) , and I met to discuss the school goals. We determined a group of 5 teachers (1st, 3rd, 4th, ELA, Science) who be in the cohort that will work with me. We discussed the tech grant and how it will be integrated into the school including a composting and writing about women students admire.

I met with each of the teachers in the cohort to introduce myself, and set up a time to meet for curriculum planning. I asked the teachers to have ready a list of some curriculum topics they will be covering in the next few weeks. I answered a few questions for them about programs they could use.

I discussed with L, the technology supervisor, scheduling the use of projectors and computer lab
with teachers in the cohort. I also updated him on the meetings I'd had with each of the teachers. I suggested a webpage with links for these teacher and he recommended using the school website so that all of the teachers in the school could use any resources found.
