I wasn't really in the mood to spend my Saturday morning in a dark computer lab at Galileo. I managed to get a case of the "kid cooties" on my first week back at school and I'm all congestion and sore nose. However, as per usual when I gather with BAWPers, I was inspired (even in my congestion fog) I'm wondering how I can intergrate technology before I support the 5th grade teachers in their Pearson residency. Here's some thoughts:
*Because I don't have a regular classroom this year, I'm thinking about teaching a creative writing after-school class for 3-5 graders. It would be great to post their writing on my site.
*I'm thinking that our school needs some prof. dev. on technology intergration. The problem is, our resouces are low and we have one teacher who is REALLY tech. savvy, a few who are moderately tech savvy, and the rest are at ground zero. I'm thinking I could talk with my principal and the tech savvy teacher and work on developing some teacher workshop time to teach even the basics.
That's all for now. I feel a sneeze coming on.
