= **__BIENVENIDOS TO MR. HARTMAN'S CLASS!!__** =

I am a Lover of Science, Geography and Language Arts, dedicated to reaching and teaching through technology. At Calverton Elementary School, I teach Reading, Science, Social Studies and Health.

For musical occasions I pick up my guitar and do my thing: a Reggae/Mo-town/Funk/Blues Medley for the African American History Performance; an acoustic accompaniment for holiday carolers or even a musical tribute to the Water Cycle for Science students. I graduated from Hunter College in 1995. My daughter, age six and my son age three drive my wife crazy.


 * My Goals for Step:**

1. I wish to inspire students to pursue learning by incoporating technology into various aspects of daily lessons. Technology should be used according to the theories of LOTI (Levels of Technology Integration), geared towards exploring the upper levels of Bloom's Taxonomy. Students need to create with technology instead of just use it. STEP is a tech-lyceum that I will utilize to fulfil this goal.

2. I am commited to communicating with parents, administrators, students and community members. My website should be a friendly, easy to navigate, one-stop information dissemination experience.
