Curriculum Companion offers the perfect solution for effectively using the adopted curriculum materials in English Language Arts while at the same time integrating technology. It provides a wealth of resources to support the integration of technology into daily lesson plans, from presentations to introduce a theme, unit or chapter to graphic organizers to support comprehension skills---all aligned directly with the state adopted materials! In this institute, you will examine the current research, look at classroom management with technology, and explore the extensive library of curriculum and technology resources available on Curriculum Companion. In addition, you will be introduced to the powerful graphic organizing software, Inspiration, learn how to use Inspiration to create effective PowerPoint presentations, and have time to create your own classroom materials. Finally, you will receive a copy of Robert Marzano’s book Classroom Instruction that Works, a copy of Inspiration 8, and a subscription to the Curriculum Companion website.
