Langwitches Blog

In this blog, I have learned how much technology has grown and how important it is to incorporate it in your classroom. There's a post about a third grade class that was studying endangered animals of Florida. In this class, the students used technology to learn more about their assigned animal and were able to make a difference by the knowledge they gained from doing research and by doing a podcast. The students not only learned about their animals, but were also able to work on how to do research and everything that goes into making a podcast, which means that this third grade class is more technologically advanced than me!

I also liked the blog titled "Internet Safety Workshop for Parents." I think that this blog was a good idea because many people are afraid of the Internet because sometimes information does get into the wrong hands. I thought that it was knowledgeable of the teacher to write this blog. Parents do need to realize that technology is growing and that their children will be learning about it and using it in the classroom so I think it would be a good idea for the parents to learn about it. That way they can make sure their children are being safe and learning everything that they can.

    You are probably correct. Hopefully you will catch up with the kids soon. And then you can teach the parents!

    Interesting. Very thoughtful post. It got me thinking in a different way. Thanks!
