Exciting things are already happening for this week. As I entered the teacher's workroom this morning, two of our 2nd grade teachers were talking about the 2nd grade website one of them was putting together for their team and students to use. They are including discussion questions for the students to respond to. The teacher seemed genuinely excited. I was excited about the idea of our 2nd grader using this tool. These teachers are always finding ways use technology with their students both in the classroom and the computer lab.
The one-to-one classroom teacher and I collaborated on some ideas for using the laptops in her science and social studies classes. We will be using labeling worksheets created in Excel with the students and using PowerPoint to created a Colonial Williamsburg map with labels.
In 7th grade Social Studies the students are going to create "Immigrant Diaries" chronicling their families history. We are going to have students create blogs for their dairies so they can share and respond to others.
In 8th grade Social studies we began an online poster project that will create a timeline of events in WWII. I am looking to see how the project develops for us.
