For example, during math lessons, I use apps like SeeSaw, which provides interactive ways for students to solve problems, conduct math calendar routines that make learning math concepts fun and engaging.

An example of PBL in my classroom is our "Community Helpers" project. Students work in small groups to research different community helpers (e.g., firefighters, police officers, doctors). They then create presentations and role-play scenarios to demonstrate what they have learned. This project not only teaches them about community roles but also enhances their research, collaboration, and communication skills.
