Mrs. Rutherford's geometry classes are learning about the medians and altidues of triangles with the help of geometer sketchpad and the Smart Slate. Mrs. Rutherford drew the triangle in Sketchpad and then had the students use the slate to add in lines to demonstrate the concepts being learned. The hands on time of the students helped them understand the concept better and engaged them in the lesson as they took turns drawing the lines and labeling the points. The technology also allowed Mrs. Rutherford to move around the room and interact with the students as she taught. Great use of the technology!
