As you prepare for a new school year, you might be interested in applying for a grant or two. Your school might be low on funds or you need materials or equipment that your school cannot provide for whatever reason. The link below will take you to Mathew Needleman’s blog. There you will find a list of different grant opportunities as well as grant writing tips. When writing your grant, make sure you emphasize on the instructional goals and student outcomes and not so much on the equipment or materials you want. Good Luck!

This Interactive Whiteboard Challenge will run for 14 weeks initially, starting on Friday August 15th. Each week there will be a new task set by someone who is an experienced whiteboard user. They will present their challenge in whatever way they like - it might be a short video, a screen cast, a podcast, etc.. You then need to go and use whatever they have presented in your classroom that week. Record your efforts and write a blog post about how it went. At the end of the challenge you will have 7 blog posts about your whiteboard practice, and lots of other blog posts on similar topics available to you to read. Title your blog post ‘Whiteboard Challenge Week 1′ etc or something very similar so it is easy for others to identify your post.
