Sweet Integrations - Sandy Cangelosi

Teacher, Instructional Technology Specialist, Trainer, k-5. My area of focus for the last 27 years has been in Instructional Technology. I am now retired so I am now sharing all of my lessons in the area of technology and the Inquiry Process. So many teachers do not use technology in the classroom because of time restraints and limited resources. I've provided lessons that are time-saving, easy to use and can be adapted for your curriculum needs. Visit my store weekly and follow me as I upload units and lessons which are aligned with essential 21st Century Skills. I would love to have feedback on my products, too.

As an instructional technology specialist, I encourage the integration of technology in teaching at any level. I believe in "anywhere, anytime learning". I also encourage cooperative learning in the classroom. This gives students an opportunity to be creative and collaborate with others. I love project based learning because it focuses on real-world problems and challenges. Students are able to connect with experts and come up with their own creative ideas as they conduct their research. I'm now diving into creating digital escape rooms. These activities also focus on cooperative learning and technology.
