Students in grades 4 and 5 will start a technology portfolio which will include a project which will support the Boston Public Schools technology, reading and math standards. Due to the focus on literacy, most of the school based professional development will focus on learning and reviewing effective methods of teaching reading and writing skills. Staff will be able to share teaching methods with other teachers at our school and in other schools, with the same focus. They will also be encouraged to participate in computer technology and math workshops.
