Kindergarteners Engage with Digital Learning

A couple of years ago whenever anyone asked me how I used technology in the classroom I would sheepishly answer that the kids played educational games on 2 stand alone computers. Well that was then and this is now! Two years later, technology tools like a document camera, projector, and interactive whiteboard are fully integrated into my classroom.
