PLN

On the link below you will find a copy of my PLN. Through this class I have learned many ways to incorporate technology into the classroom. I have shared the information that I have learned with other teachers in my building. I have also tried to incorporate technology into more of the lessons that I teach. My students love going onto my moodle page and my class blog. They love seeing their pictures and work on the Internet. I made my PLN using webspiration. I like that the website and found it easy to use.

Evidence of Network Participation

Throughout the semester I participated in a variety of ways. I posted comments on the projects of my classmates and I also posted comments on the video discussion board. I continued to share the information that I have learned with other teachers in my buildings. I added pictures of some of the emails that have been exchanged.

WebQuest

In February, I teach my first grade students about President's Day and our country's symbols and monuments. I created this webquest as an extra activity for my students to complete at the end of the unit during our computer lab time. Creating the webquest was a lot of work but I think that they are a great addition to a unit. I began thinking about how I could use webquests in my classroom. I would like to develop webquests to go along with the units and books that we are studying and assign them as extra credit or as a follow up to the end of a unit.

Wikki Lesson

I think that the Wikki spaces is a great resource for teachers. I like how it is organized by grade level so you can easily navigate through to find ideas of how you can incorporate technology into lessons. I posted my podcast lesson onto the ktwelve wikki to share. I think that a wikki would be very difficult for my first graders to use on their own for projects.
