A Message From Your Seminar Leader

Dear Colleague:

My experience with fourth grade students has highlighted my passion for providing students with highly engaging, highly effective learning experiences. Today we are challenged to sift through the endless tech tools and determine which actually enhance learning rather than add more to our already very full plates. How do we best enhance the skills of our Fourth Graders and reduce learning gaps while utilizing the new, free technology resources ideal for Fourth Graders?

Here are some of the topics we will uncover:

Using the best, new digital tools to increase Fourth Graders’ learning
Creating classroom environments that increase student communication and collaboration while reducing behavior issues
Infusing the best, new technology tools into the content areas to increase your students’ engagement
Developing your Fourth Graders’ synthesizing skills
New, classroom-tested methods that increase fourth grader’s reading, writing, listening and speaking skills
Ways to improve 21st Century Learning Skills in all of your students

During our idea-packed day, we will focus on practical ways to “up our game.” I share which technology tools match the needs of your Fourth Graders. You will have a variety of techniques, tools, and resources to pick and choose from as you consider what you want to add to your teaching tool bag. I will model quick, simple and structured resources to increase your Fourth Graders’ engagement and learning in Reading, Writing, Math, Science and Social Studies.

Join me for a day focusing on new, practical strategies to use tomorrow in your Fourth Grade classroom. I will focus on intentional practices and resources you can begin to use the very next day.

Sincerely,
Jaime Bailey
