[quote=Anonymous]I am a 2nd grade teacher in a public school in MCPS. I am old school so we only use our Chromebooks for assessments. I ignore the admin telling me to have the kids on 30 mins to 1 hour a day. I have math games and enrichment packets with materials they can use and work together as a group to solve if they are early finishers. I used to have a science lab and writing center but the principal told me it was exclusive :( to the other kids who never got to finis in time or got pulled and had no access to them. I do have a smart board and I use it to display objectives and page numbers and pictures to read aloud primarily as they are from the curriculum but in Math, we use manipulative and I use a camera to guide the in math or we use natural materials including our bodies to show math concepts. Parents appreciate that I do not allow kids on screens. During indoor recess we use playdoh, puzzles,  legos, and a huge kitchen with checkout machine. The girls have a huge doll house. They love it![/quote]
