April eNewsletter

In this month's eNewsletter, I offer some advice on building your very own Professional Learning Network (PLN).

Instead of meeting with your department, team, or grade level locally, a global education team is formed online so that you can enhance your lessons, projects and units. I have also attached some great articles on creating lessons and builiding PLN's with technology. Below are some great links to help you get started as well.
