About Me

Welcome to my Homepage.
My name is Jeri Cross and I am a teacher at Central Park Elementary School. I teach Kindergarten, and co-chair the Technology Committee. I am a member of the Pyramid Cadre for Technology for Broward County. this is my second summer of participating in the pyramid. My background is in Fine Arts Education with a Master of Fine Arts Education from Montclair State University. Since moving to Florida in 1989 I have completed an Educational Specialist Degree in Computer Science Education at Nova Southeastern University. I love using the creative aspects of the computer to have my students learn.

About My Classroom

I plan on teaching reading to my students using the computer to create stories. I'm interested in hearing from others who use the computer in a Kindergarten classroom to create stories using a multi-media approach.
