What Are Teachers Saying About TeAchnology?

April is the month where most teachers catch their "second wind". The drive to work is a little sunnier, birds are chirping, and everybody seems to have a bite more skip in their step. This is also the month that we start our countdown to summer vacation. If you haven't checked it out yet, make sure to see our April Reading Series and Study Skills area. As Michelle Nelson told us this week; "Your April Series and study skills area have really made my day much easier. It was great to be able to help students learn how they learn best. The Learning Styles checklist really helped. Thanks guys!"

It's a great time to become a Teachnology member. We'll help make your April much more doable!
