Looking back on this assignment, I have learned a lot about blogging, websites and a variety of technologies that can be used in the classroom. All this information is new to me (mostly because I teach in a Preschool classroom) and I love reading about technologies that can help my students become better learners. I also like how we are learning about supportive technologies for students who have disabilities. I have two students who have learning disabilities and technologies such as iPads, computers, read a-long software, has really helped me teach more efficiently toward their learning styles.
My goal, after I finish my master, is to become a Kindergarten teacher. The very first thing I want to do for my classroom is to create a classroom blog. I want both students and parents to have access to:
- Online event/assignment calender
- Spelling list
- My contact info
- Pictures of students doing projects or on a field trip
- Reading List
- Small Forums that students can participate in
Will I delete this when this assignment is over?
No, I will not delete this blog. My goal is to keep this up and running so I can post future resources for both work and school. This even inspired me to create a personal blog for my family and friends.
