Each of our classrooms has a bit of a different environment. Some are set up lecture style, with a laptop cart available for when it is needed. Others are booming with technology with desktops along the back of the class, and either an iPad cart or laptop cart also available to provide students choice. The rotation model gives our teachers a flexible structure in which they can modify and adapt how they provide instruction using blended learning resources, as well as provide students access and choice in and outside of class.

STAFF DEVELOPMENT First

By adopting this model, we have been able to provide collaboration among the faculty, where they can share how their approach impacts their classrooms.

Classroom uses

  • Modeling through note apps
  • Lectures through tablet screencasts
In this class environment, the teacher begins class by lecturing and recording notes on her ipad, later posting them on her class Haiku(LMS). She then sets up rotations, one of which can be online Math assessments and activities using a laptop cart and online Math program. Can you spot the teacher? She's lecturing, while sitting next to a student.
