Technology at Bancroft!

We are excited about new technology applications at our school!

Each classroom now has a SmartBoard (interactive whiteboard). Our teachers are learning all the amazing things they can do to engage students in learning using the SmartBoards. This also enables the teacher to project a variety of things on the screen for the students to view. These SmartBoards take the place of old film and slide projectors, DVD players, VCRs, and even the big-screen televisions. 

All of our teachers in grades 2-5 have audio systems that help the students hear the teacher better. The teacher wears a microphone, and a speaker is located in the back of the room. We have also ordered these systems for our kindergarten and first grade classes, so they will arrive soon. An additional microphone can be used by students when they make presentations to the class.
