 * Description **
 * I went into one of our 3rd grade English/Language Arts classrooms to model BCR writing for the students. Using the gradual release of responsibility model, I allowed them to copy my work first.  Then we worked on a response together.  Finally, the students had to work on their own to create a ‘3’ BCR themselves.  (We also color coded our response to make sure that we covered everything… ooooh) **
 * Reflection **
 * Using the ELMO as a way of integrating technology into the classroom was a great success. It was easy to use (after the initial setup) and the students enjoyed the instantaneous “real life” interaction ****.
