Interview with a Multilingual Learner Teacher

Technology in my classroom
I am a tech savvy teacher who has been able to pilot several programs within our school district. I have been able to use these and more in order to engage my students with new learning technologies while advancing their minds in subjects:
- Readworks
- Freckle
- Dreambox
- Mindplay
- Quizizz
- Kahoot
- Blooket
I am always up to learn new programs and find creative ways to incorporate them in my classroom. Technology allows us to differentiate instruction to fit each of our student's unique needs.
