Why should I integrate technology into my classroom? merichardson https://padlet.com/merichardson/gmxlgm312rjy/wish/138908627 This video talks about a teacher in a Kindergarten classroom. But, this is true for a teacher in any classroom Pre-k- 12th grade.]]> 2016-11-20 04:48:11 UTC https://padlet.com/merichardson/gmxlgm312rjy/wish/138908627 2. How do I use technology for learning? merichardson https://padlet.com/merichardson/gmxlgm312rjy/wish/138908717 Here I will show you two of my favorite sites to use in my classroom as well as explain these sites. 

The first is www.padlet.com. This is actually what I made this professional development module on. This site is good for students researching information. They can research their information and post their findings on their padlet. They are able to upload any pictures or videos they feel are important to their presentation. Students are able to take ownership of their work and love making their pages. 

Another website that is very similar to padlet is www.glogster.com. This website requires a fee whereas padlet is free. ]]> 2016-11-20 04:52:05 UTC https://padlet.com/merichardson/gmxlgm312rjy/wish/138908717 2. How do I use technology for learning? merichardson https://padlet.com/merichardson/gmxlgm312rjy/wish/138908869 The second website I use to incorporate technology into my classroom is www.kahoot.com. Kahoot has millions of teacher made online quizzes and also allows you to make your own quizzes. If you are preparing for a test in English , you can search in kahoot " Quiz on prepositions" and choose a quiz. The students then get to use their devices to choose the correct answer. Each students name is in the game so they are able to see their names on the leaderboard if they get the questions correct. My students love this app!

How does the implementation of this technology correlate with my CCRS content standards? merichardson https://padlet.com/merichardson/gmxlgm312rjy/wish/138909022 You can implement technology into your lessons daily. You can look at the CCRS standards and determine how you can incorporate technology into what you are teaching. Using computers and IPADS in the classroom isn't just for fun! students are actually learning while using this technology. ]]> 2016-11-20 05:02:03 UTC https://padlet.com/merichardson/gmxlgm312rjy/wish/138909022 Sample lesson merichardson https://padlet.com/merichardson/gmxlgm312rjy/wish/138909628 This lesson plan targets the technology standards I have listed under the "Standards" post using glogster.com.
