=**Step 1: For standard two, select the indicator that is your strongest suit for the standard and give two examples (artifacts) of why you selected it as your strongest suit.**= Indicator selected: a -design or adapt relevant learning experiences that incorporate digital tools and resources to promote student learning and creativity Artifact 1: Using inspiration to create word webs comparing two stories that the students read in reading class.

Artifact 2: Create a summarizing/notetaking graphic organizer. The students complete and make their own web using Inspiration as they summarize the big events in the beginning, middle, and end of the theme book they read.

=**Step 2: For standard two, select the indicator that is your "least strongest" suit for the standard and write a professional goal of how you are going to increase your competency with the goal this year.**= Indicator selected: c- customize and personalize learning activities to address students' diverse learning styles, working strategies, and abilities using digital tools. Goal: To differentiate learning activities using digital tools and using Marzano's Technology in the classroom as a resource.

=Step 3: On the final TCL day, reflect on each standard and goal you set for yourself. How did you do and why?=

Reflection: Having the book about Marzano's Strategies to be used as our school inservice focus each month has forced me to meet each strategy with a technology learning activity. Each month we read and focus on 1-2 strategies and then we have to come up with a learning activity to do integrating technology with the strategy. It has been very useful as I have gained more knowledge and use of our laptops with the students each month.
