Last Week...Sad Face!!!

Last week of ICT so I decided to do a video blog

Second Last Week.....Yikes!!!!

Just finishing up the second last week of first term. Not sure where the time went. It feels like we just started the school year. Though right now teachers are really begin to load on the work. This week I had to get done, 1 Presentation, three papers, and an E portfolio, while getting reading for my last week with the other two major presentations and paper. Not sure how I am going to get it all done. Though I am looking forward to my presentation in ICT. My group is showing how you can use the smart board in the classroom. We manage to create a few activities to show the class as well as showing them how to use the clicker system. I really like the idea of using the smart board in the classroom there is show much you can do with it. It can give the students an opportunity to manipulate different things that they may not get to in real life as well as making it quicker for the teacher to prepare. For example you create a shape and have the smart board divide into whatever portions you want. This can be done with paper in class but it would take hours on the teachers part cutting out different shapes.

Third Last Week...

Its the third last week of school before the Christmas break and things have gone nuts. We have gotten all of our assignments to finish off the term and I am not sure how i am going to get it all done. On the bright side I got to take a pd on how to use the smart board effectively in the classroom and it was really good. We learned different way to use the smart board, learned about skype in the classroom and how to use the clickers. I am looking forward to using this information in my presentation for ICT. The PD I took was targeted toward middle years so my group is going to create different ways to use the smart board in a senior years classroom.
