Welcome to our site!
This is a site we created to increase communication with teachers, students, and schools all over the world. We are the technology team from Roland Story Elementary School, located in Story City, IA. We are 1:1 with iPads in grades 1-4, as well as partial integration in Kindergarten, Special Education, and Early Childhood Special Education.
On this site, you will find many different resources. We will post updates to notify our teachers about news or solutions to technological problems. As we find lesson ideas with different technology tools, we will post those for anyone who is interested. We will also add questions that people may have, in the FAQ section. This site is a work in progress. Keep checking back to see how we grow and adapt!
If you have a thought, problem, concern, or idea, please comment on a post! We look forward to communicating with this tool.
Roland Story employs undergraduate students from Iowa State University who are studying education with a technology minor. We will be the ones primarily running this site.
Meet the technology team!
