This website is designed to present new technology tools to teachers to use in their classrooms with students everyday. These are ideas that can be used in any level class and with any student. We know that technology looks different in every class. Teachers have to take different technology tools and make them their own to fit the needs of their students.
Kimberly Pope
My name is Kimberly Pope and I have been teaching and coaching in Coppell ISD for the past 7 years and have a total of 10 years teaching experience. I currently teach 7th/8th Texas and United States History; GT to on level students. I have a Master’s degree in Curriculum and Instruction, Principal Certification, and starting my Doctoral in Educational Administration in the summer of 2013.
This past school year, I completely flipped my GT classes and worked in the beginning process of flipping my on level classes. I used two completely different structures in both classes and the response was great. I am looking forward to incorporating a fully function flipped classroom model for all my classes this year. My favorite pastimes include: spending time with my husband Tony and three boys, Kaleb, Lennon, and Hendrix; reading, and grilling out in the backyard.

Melanie Ringman
A little about me:I graduated from Texas A&M in 2005. Whoop! I have two boys, Elijah and Joshua, two cats and a dog. As you can imagine, our house is always busy. In my spare time, I am an avid reader and love spending time with my husband and kids. My favorite genre is dystopian and fantasy novels. I love talking about books so you can always strike up a conversation with me about the book you are currently reading!
This is my 8th year to teach at Coppell Middle School North. I currently teacher 7th/8th grade combined GT Language Arts. I have taught in the gifted program for six years and have taught both Language Arts and History. This year our school has implemented the 3E model lesson planning with a focus on flipping the classroom. I have enjoyed engaging, enriching and empowering my lessons and my students. This year I have pushed myself out of the box and to always put the focus on my students. Email: [email protected] Twitter: @melanieringman Coppell Middle School North |
