Hillary Thorpe uses Promethean Boards to teach her third grade class at Millersville
Elementary School in Millersville, Md. The white boards become interactive through
games and lessons via computers and the internet and allow the students to interact
at the same time.
Third-grade teacher Hillary Thorpe rarely uses the blackboard or an overhead projector
in her classroom. In fact, she says, they are almost obsolete at her school, Millersville
Elementary School in Millersville, Md.
Instead, the teachers there have been using interactive whiteboards to teach their
students. A whiteboard has a large screen that is connected to a computer and a projector.
Miss Thorpe's classroom first received a whiteboard last fall.
"It allows for a creative presentation of material," Miss Thorpe says. "It allows
me to keep the students engaged regardless of the subject matter."
Just chalk it up to innovation
