...and we're off!

In the world of GATE, August is filled with paperwork and data entry that has to be collected and turned into the state. We also spend the month crunching test scores and looking for new GATE candidates that score in the top 97% on state standardized tests. Put that on top of our building's new (exciting and beautiful) construction, and we we're off to a little bit of a late start this school year, but it hasn't slowed us down at all.

AUGMENTED REALITY:
The month of September held exciting and eye-opening curriculum regarding augmented reality. AR (augmented reality) is one of the biggest, progressive trends in the education world right now, and we are at the forefront! Augmented Reality combines real and virtual data, it is interactive in real time, and is in a 3D format.  Students have viewed, played, and enhanced their learned using this type of AR in the GATE classroom.

PROJECT:
The month of October, students will be creating augmented reality of their own! This will include class posters and word walls to decorate our classroom. Download the free app aurasma and follow our 3 classroom channels (linked below). The next time you pop into our school, you will be able to see the augmented reality we have been creating in the classroom! Just use the app on the outside of my door as a good starting place!
