Marge Kobewka
I currently teach grade 1, 2, and 3. I use Google Sites, Google Classroom, Pear Deck, and Google Meet to connect with my grade 1, 2, and 3 students. I have used Moodle for most of the years I have taught online. Last year moved to all Google applications because everything integrates so well. I have been working online for the past 10 years and genuinely love what I do. Engaging participants in meaningful discussion is something I think about every day in my online classes with young students.
