Hi All!

My name is Craig Martin. I currently serve as a Grade 3 All-Boys Teacher in Boston Public Schools. Evolving in my role as a technology integrationist, I hope to deepen my use of tools that can help my students become stronger 21st Century learners and provide my brethren in the field with support and resources that have helped me with my own practice.

I would love to stay connected with like-minded people who are also walking this journey:
