There are many times in science or social studies that topics are so abstract for the students to understand, but with hardly any elbow grease, my students can see, hear, comprehend, and talk to experts.

Jing is another way to have specifics on projects, parental conferences when the need arises, or to work with students on their projects. For example, if you visit other schools and like a particular set-up, you can upload it and share with members of your team.

For book buddies, you might have the students to record a book and share with their book buddies.
