Tech in the Classroom
This blog shares my ideas and experiences with technology in an elementary classroom.
Webquest and Student Magazine
We've been working on the Webquest that Chauncey, Marlaina and I created in a class last semester. It is going fairly well. The students seem to be enjoying it, and many of them are getting a lot out of it. There are others who don't seem to be getting it though. I've had to really organize them and help them generate ideas to add to their articles.







One thing that I added was a template for the students to follow when planning the articles. It helps the students organize their ideas and get started. This has been helpful for most of the students. I'm looking forward to the finished products, but I still worry that many are not learning what I'm hoping they'll learn. I almost want to include some kind of formal test in addition to this assignment.







Organizing the technology so far has seemed to go well. Groups that need computers have been able to get on one, and those that are not working on the computers have been busy with other tasks. Hopefully we will have all the articles typed by Friday so that on Monday and Tuesday we can polish our work.  I will then add them to a folder on my class page.
