Unique and exciting adventures available for teachers and students, all individually designed for you and your school!

Online Field trips to:

• Istanbul
• Israel
• Egypt
• Jordan
• London

These are places students are unlikely to visit on a field trip. However, I have recently been to each of those countries. I can visit with your class online using email and chat rooms. Students will learn about the region by viewing PowerPoint presentations, completing worksheets, discussing personal pictures, answering questions, and working on projects.

Are you more interested in areas of the United States?
Online visits to these areas are also available.

• Charleston, South Carolina
• Savannah, Georgia
• Nashville, Tennessee
• New York City area

Virtual trips to other areas around the world are also available. Just ask!

Consulting

It is important for teachers to integrate technology in the classroom.
Among the several ways that technology can be of benefit in education are:

• teachers can present material in a variety of interesting ways
• students become actively involved in their own learning
• lessons can more easily be individualized
• collaboration with other classrooms can be quickly and easily accomplished
• accurate records can be easily kept

Having taught classes from nursery school through graduate level university classes, I have done all of these things and more.
I can show you how to use various types of technology, both software and peripherals, in professional development courses.

Also, I can provide professional development, either online or at your district in the areas of:

Theory of Reading Instruction
Reading Instruction for Beginning Teachers,
Science, Math and Technology Integration
Reading and Social Studies Integration
Middle School Reading Instruction|
Differentiated Instruction
Preparing to be a Mentor
Teaching in an Inclusive Classroom
Creating WebQuests for all levels and subject areas
Creating Dynamic PowerPoint Presentations
And more! Just ask about an area you are interested in.
