This school has a tab for the teachers that have created websites for their students. The webpages have links leading to the page. On one of the teacher pages you can find their classroom schedules as a reminder for their students. They also have modes of contacting them. There are multiple tabs that can help students know what their next assignment is. It gives a schedule for tests or assessments that may come up that the teacher knows is coming up in advance.  These teachers had websites for grades 9-12.

I plan to use technology in my classroom as much as possible. I believe technology is very important in education. It can elevate the mind and have children thinking more about something. Writing and doing work on paper is very beneficial in the growth of a student, they should know how it feels to write a 2000 word paper by hand and feel the ache of writing for so long. It build character and "prepares you for college".

The Smart Board is a very good tool that teachers can use in the classrooms. Teachers can allow students to interact with the board to complete problems, annotate readings, or just for free time. They are able to customize the Smart Board to their liking, if they want to set restrictions or not. There are many forms of the board and it comes with many settings for the markers. I can also use the Merge cube to show demonstrations of different tools. The soft cube toy that allows users to physically hold and be able interact with 3D objects using augmented reality technology.
