County teachers showcase talents

Several teachers from Woodbury Grammar School were busy during their Fall Break showcasing their talents as presenters at the Mobilization Summit at MTSU on Oct. 15-16. 

Holly Harwood, Lance McAllister, Pam Forrest, and Bonnie Patterson gave presentations on how mobile devices were used in enhancing teaching and learning in the areas of science, math, reading/language arts, physical education and special education at Woodbury Grammar School. 

During the conference, Woodbury Grammar School was presented a check for $500 from Tennessee Board of Regents eMerging Technologies program, under the direction of Robbie Melton, for the purchase of app resources for student use. Woodbury Grammar is a part of the TBR eLearning & Emerging Mobilization Technology P-16 partnership.

This program provides a student-focused, comprehensive and integrated system that links all education levels from preschool (P) through the senior year of college (16).  The goal of the partnership is to improve teaching and learning and thus better prepare students for living, learning and working in a changing world.
