Technology Ideas

Honestly, we don't have access to technology that I know of. I am going to try to figure something out and will keep updating this blog!

Technology Ideas

For teaching a lesson on synonyms, I will use the overhead to display an enticing activity sheet for the students to complete as a class. I will then display a powerpoint with 1 word written on one slide while the students must come up with a synonym and write it on their personal whiteboard. This way, students can do their own work and they can see the word written on the overhead so they will be able to visualize it better and see the spelling!

The first week at Westridge Elementary has been amazing!  I am surprised at how many computers are in the school.  There are no computers in the classroom I am currently in except for a mac occupied by the teacher.  There are 3 computer labs in the school that consist of mac computers.  Using these computers students work on math and literacy programs.  There is no overhead except for in the library. 

I haven't seen any technology used in the classroom but I am excited to use it!
