Welcome to **Teacher Talk Webcast,** a webcast with teachers conversing about their ideas, their practice, and their interests. This is Cheryl Lykowski and I am joined with Susan vanGelder and Lisa Parisi. We are streaming live in Sandbox A on the Webcast Academy Channel of the Worldbridges network. Today, we will be joined by Colleen King, math teacher, educational consultant, and author of Math Playground. Our topic of discussion is math and technology and how the two can be seamlessly integrated into classroom and curriculum. This has been Cheryl Lykowski, Susan vanGelder, and Lisa Parisi bringing you Teacher Talk Webcast. Thank you to our special guest, Colleen King.
