The affinity group that I joined a few weeks ago was The
Educator’s PLN, which has been a great websites with an abundance of
information about the educational field.
The other tool that I continue to use for my classes is the Digg RSS
stream. I am in the process of developing the lesson plans for my classes and
this site has given me ideas from classroom management to creating lesson
plans. It can be time consuming trying
to go through several articles and
sites, but it has been very helpful. I am still working on deciding how to use
Twitter in my classes; one possibility is maintaining the parents inform of any class projects or school events. The students in my class are engaged whenever I use
the Smart Notebook in the classroom. I download class assignments on the Smart
Notebook, and students come up to the board and solve the problems. This class has provided me with valuable
resources and tools that I can use in my classroom. I have shared some of the
things that I have learned in this class with other teachers.
