Hello Everyone!
I have included my thoughts about Modern Classroom Project. Those of you who participated in MCP, I would love to hear from you, because I need to improve. I have yet to figure out how it best works without me feeling like I am leaving children behind or catering to the ones who will not put forth effort.

The E-GLASS was an awesome addition to my classroom and a game changer for non-traditional instruction days. It created an online environment that was more engaging and helped students stayed focused by being able to see the information and the teacher.
