Welcome

Hello,
This is Mrs. Maddox.  Thank you for stopping by my blog.  I created this blog to share information on how you can help your child succeed in school.  I hope that you will enjoy reading the latest news in education that will assist your child in becoming a better scholar. 


As I read magazines, newspapers, blogs, and books on educating children, I’ll pass on the bits of information to help you apply it to your own child’s education


I am currently focusing on technology this month.  It probably comes as no surprise that children are very tech savvy beginning at an early age.  We want to encourage this exploration of technology while still keeping them safe.  Little changes as fast as technology.  As a teacher, I am teaching students to prepare for jobs that have not yet been created.  Isn’t that amazing?  Jobs that seem common place now were not even thought of as little as five years ago. 


Come with me, and let’s take a look into the latest news on technology over the next month.  I would like to learn more about infographics and how to create them, as well as how to use them to help students learn.  Technology is very engaging.  I'd also like to learn more ways to put technology in the hands of students the minute they step into the classroom.

    It is amazing that 5 years ago who knew that current jobs would even exist. I made posters last year for every school showing that every job every career needs 21st century technology skills.

    The poster sounds interesting. Is it something you can share?
    My son attends a New Tech HS. They are project based with technology. I am so glad he is attending. He is way ahead of his peers in technology.

    This sounds like a wonderful theme for a blog. I can never keep up with all the changes in education.

      Thanks you. I read so much about education that I find myself forgetting where I read it, especiailly if I am reading multiple sources. This blog will help me keep track of what I learned and where I found it.

    What a great service for parents! With more and more parents accessing the internet, looking for answers, it is great for them to have a trusted source to explore when searching for support in their child's education.

    Thank you. When I talked with parents after school, or at conferences, I always wanted to refer them to a sight for more information, but I didn't have the info handy for them. My goal is to refer them to the blog for the locations for the material they need. Plus, they might find other interesting news.
