Posted byWorking 4 the Classroomat12:38 AM26commentsEmail ThisBlogThis!Share to TwitterShare to FacebookShare to Pinterest Friday, March 22, 2013 The Impact of Technology....I was asked to review an informational graphic about technology, by Allison Morris. This graphic focuses onthe important role that technology is playing for todays teachers and how its changing our classrooms.

This graphic clearly displays how vital the implementation of technology has become, while at the same time, implying the huge underlying role that educators play, (regarding both academics and social etiquette).

I recently joined my districts 1:1 classroom computer pilot program, and have had numerous technological thoughts bouncing around in my head. Allisons graphic, helped me to narrow my focus and articulate these thoughts as questions:

How has technology affectedmy teaching style? How?
How has technology affectedmy management style? How?
Has the use of technology become a "norm" inmy daily lessons? How/Why?
How has technology changed my planning and pacing? How/Why?
What social etiquette standards regarding technology am I expecting my students to follow?
What are the most important technology based skills that my students need to master and how can I make this happen?
Is there a more efficient way to accomplish what is required, using technology? How?
What is the best way to differentiate instruction using technology? How?
Project based learning..How can technology support incorporate multiple content areas to accurately display what students have learned?

Please take a look at Allison's graphic, she is looking forfeedback. Here is thelink..... Click Here For: http://www.onlineuniversities.com/teachers-love-technology

Whether we are ready to or not.It is time to truly embrace technology!

Mine sure do! They want the answers "spoon fed" to them. Well, in order to prepare my students to become actively involved in their own learning, we have started focusing on "Personal Think Time". We brainstormed our ideas as a class and charted them out together. Doing this, has given the students some real reasons for thinking on their own and allowed them to be ready to participate.


Posted byWorking 4 the Classroomat12:44 PM9commentsEmail ThisBlogThis!Share to TwitterShare to FacebookShare to PinterestOut of the Mouths of Babes....Behavior SimplifiedAt the beginning of the year, I start off with some basic behavior guidelines (Success in 5...4...3...2...1). I'm not big on complicated systems that eat up valuable classroom time. Once the students have an understanding of our classroom expectations we work together to chart them out (using the student's own words and ideas).

This process serves as a reminder to the students and a heads up to new kiddos about how our classroom works.

Built in accountability without a lot of tracking and hassle!

We have had some fun this week, whilelearning about adverbs and prepositions. The practice pages andworksheets, just weren't cutting it. So, I decided to take a differentapproach.
The students worked in pairs and created complete sentences using adverbs(where/when/how).
I asked them to get "into it" and "be thefish/fisherman"....they loved this idea!
They had to be very careful to make sure that their adverbs,didn't turn into prepositions (due to where they placed their nouns). Iwas excited to see that...they were getting it!! I listened to theirconversations (some of which became a little heated...lol) and found that theyreally were carefully constructing sentences, engaged and also having fun!



I had introduced prepositionsfirst....they caught on as I discussed the concept of how the preposition relates the worm to the apple (the nouns).
The worm is ______ the apple.
