The document describes how a teacher uses a Promethean board for morning meetings instead of paper and pencil. Students follow along on dry erase sheets as they do activities on the board like attendance, calendar, weather and songs. The board engages students and is helpful for visual learners. However, some students get distracted or the technology doesn't always work. Overall, the Promethean board makes morning meeting more interactive compared to using only paper.

morning meeting with boring pencil and paper.

paper.
 Subjects include:
 Attendance
 Calendar
 Date

while following along on their own dry erase
paper.

up weather.com to find out what the weather
is like!

meeting looks like.
