A Vision for Moyer Elementary

Digital Conversion at Moyer Creation and Publication - Providing our students a tool in which they can create and publish works to an audience both near and far with an authentic purpose that is relevant to the student. Student Choice – Allow students to demonstrate their learning in a variety of ways that is meaningful to them. Communication / Collaboration – Enhance presentational skills in an engaging way that fosters collaboration with teachers and classmates. In addition, communication with all stakeholders will be increased by having access. Engagement – All students can be engaged in the lesson at all times. Differentiated Instruction – Access to leveled text and resources that allow for differentiation to meet the needs of all students.
