Last Post

This will be my last post on my blog since my second class is finished today:) There were some technology problems with the discussion board at the beginning, but things seemed to be fine the last couple of weeks. I was so excited to finish my volcano web quest and post it Sunday night. I have over 40 websites on my delicious account and have blogged every week. We do not have to meet for our new class until the weekend of January 16th so it will be a nice to have free weekends until then. I hope everyone has a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. See you January 2010:o)

Final Project Complete

I just finished my web quest on volcanoes and posted it to the discussion board!! I enjoyed working on this project and had fun creating something different for my students to complete. I have enjoyed all of the projects that I have had to complete for this class. I have learned a lot of new technology information since starting my masters. I can't wait for the other classes that I will take over the next year.

Happy Wednesday

As of last night all of the Smartboards have been installed at Blackwell. I am testing this week, so I have been able to see many great lessons that are already being taught using the Smartboards. All of the students are very excited!! I worked with a Kindergarten class yesterday using the question of the day moving their name under which was their favorite: carrots or candy canes. It will be very exciting to see the wonderful things the teachers at Blackwell will do with the Smartboards.

Out of the Box SMARTBoard Training

This afternoon I was in a training for the smart boards that my school is getting in all of the classrooms. It was great that some of the things that we learned in the training are things that I have learned throughout my technology classes. I am excited about using the smart boards and hope that some of the technology classes that we are scheduled to take will have things that we can use with the smart boards. We also got a new document camera that is wonderful and is such a great technology tool to use:o)

Great day of schoolwork:)

It is so cold in GA today!!! Earlier this morning we even had snow:o) It is a great day to finish up my schoolwork. I have added several websites to my delicious account, searched for the GA state standards for my web quest, blogged for the week, and I am going to try and finish my web quest. I have been trying to work on it a little each day.
