Hi everyone,
I was extremely excited about last class. I really enjoyed collaborating with our group on how to make a new blog together. Usually I shy away from working in a group and prefer to work alone. But this time I felt extremely comfortable with the subject matter and the people I was working with. I am also gaining a lot of confidence in my technological abilities. Gone are the feelings of anxiousness when it is my turn to do something or research a part of our project! I wish I would have taken this course at the beginning of my Masters instead of the end.
Our group decided to do our project on the life cycle of the frog. I teach grade three so I was familiar with the topic and working with the little ones. I enjoyed searching for apps, youtube videos, e-books, on-line crafts and any little bit of interesting information we could add to our blog. I must say that our blog looks great and I am extremely proud of what we have done. I will post the link to our blog for everyone to see. Enjoy and thank you to my group!
I really liked the YouTube video you posted about 13 year old Rosie. I had never seen it before, but as I was watching it, it reminded me of the video I posted on 10 Things that every child with autism wish you knew. Rosie's story really spoke to what that video said.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing!
I also enjoyed working in a group Setz. It was amazing how we all collaborated and came up with a plan very quickly. It was amazing how quickly we created our blog and the resources grew very very quickly! Like you Setz, I enjoyed this blog assignment.
ReplyDeleteAwesome blog! Even though I do not teach elementary there are some things I can use or adapt for my Biology classes or use with students on IPP's. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI agree with you Setz! I wish I had taken a class like this earlier in my career. I have learned so much. It has been great to work with you!!
DeleteGreat working with you too as always, my friend! I think this type of blog can be used in so many ways and helps to give all students in the class a chance to explore blogs and everything they can provide in a learning experience. When I get back from mat leave, we'll have to develop some together on other subjects!!
