Technical Skills

We have been spending time in class exploring different websites we can incorporate into the classroom for the future. We did a project called Come To The Edge which was a great way for me to spend time exploring different websites and learning how to can use them in the classroom, or how it could benefit some of the students I might encounter with in my classroom. I learned how to make stories or draw pictures, or putting together a collage. All of these sites can be used for the students and get them to be more independent, but also to become more creative. I have also been lacking in the creative category, so this to me was quite a challenge. Knowing what I know now about all of these sites, I wish I was giving these options when I was in elementary school, because maybe I would not feel so in confident with using my imagination. I will make sure that when I start teaching in my own classroom, I will make sure to incorporate these into my lessons or even fun sites for them to play on when they have free time! I want my students to learn about these sites and become more creative!

  1. I thought that Project 1 was very beneficial. It was a great way to get us familiar with several websites at a time. This project allows us to become very creative and think about how we can use these creative websites in our classroom!
