Markham’s classrooms, K-5, have Promethean Boards to engage our students in instruction. Most classrooms have begun this new way of instruction. Interactive Whiteboards have replaced chalkboard (remember those?) and whiteboards with interactive technology. Using a special digital pen, a projector, and a laptop computer, students can interact with their lessons on the interactive boards and teachers can present lessons using special effects, lots of color, audio and video to reach our generation of “digital natives”! Students are engaged in projects that make the most of their computer technology skills as they learn how to research, download images, and create presentations to show what they have learned. These are just a few examples of how we are preparing our students for a bright future and tomorrow’s challenges.
