Teacher Spotlight: Ms. Newby, Ms. Tinsley, and Ms. Esplin, Stansbury Elementary

December 2015Josh Whiting

Watch Tracy Newby’s 4th Grade class at Stansbury Elementary engage in a Kahoot quiz, competing remotely against another 4th grade classroom led by Erin Esplin. Karen Tinsley, the school technology specialist, collaborated with the teachers to create this activity, and the teachers coordinated with each other during the event using Skype. These teachers take assessment of student learning to an exciting new level of collaboration and friendly competition.
