NEW technology !

I am excited to begin using new classroom response "clickers" with students.  Each child can use a handheld device to answer multiple choice, True/False, etc questions.  The results are posted immediately and gives students their scores on their screen as soon as they finish the assignment.  I was able to purchase these for the library by saving book fair profits the past few years...so THANK YOU to everyone that supports the library during the book fair.
