Reflections

Well, my favorite tools are skype, image generators, comment and create a blog. The first tool I will use in my classroom are the conferences through skype with different professionals and children while we study our topic of jobs in the community.

Making good use of this tools will make my teaching more atractive and interactive for my K students.

I am surprised I am finally done with this curse and so excited about how much we can learn behind a desk with a computer and a great explanation.. I love the way it is all organized. I hope we'll have more classes like this. I am totally pro education on-line. Thank you all for preparing it.

Tool #11

The first good habits I would like to practice with my K students are :

Give credit to the authors of the sources,
Be polite (use good manners),
Personal safety.

Digital citizenship is use digital tools in a safe and ethical way. I would model and let them practice in a guided environment (like collaborating with others outside the classroom).

Tool #10

There are so many apps, for my students I liked the AB that allows them to trace letters and form words.

I had a staff development and we use an i-touch, It was really interesting, I like how it syncro, I can't wait to get them for the class.

My students could use them as an learning station like audio or ABC, also for math practice (addition, substraction, geometric shapes, etc.) would work great.

Tool #9

I think that we could use Jing to record how to access to the library or to navigate/ search on line, for my kindergarten class could be practical instead of reminding each one of them. They could access to the instructions with the voice and screens recorded.

I might use skype to invite profesionals to talk about their job to the class or to conference with someone in other country to explore different cultures. The idea of the read aloud by the author is very good too, I hope we get a camara : )

Tool #8

This video about plants will be useful for our science unit.

Tool #7

My students will help me updating this video so we can review and edit what is expected for them during station's time. I had fun working in this but it was a lot of time invested.
