Technology I will use in my classroom
As I go through these educational websites, the one that I had the most fun with and am already thinking about ways to use it in my classroom is the Globster website where you build your own interactive website. I liked that there were so many different layouts and so many topics you could use for these posters and you can create them anyway you'd like. I liked all of the themes that were available to use and in so many different subjects. I did my interactive poster on the Biomes which I included several different videos of the animals that live there and just what goes on in the forest. I found that kids like engaging videos that are interesting and fun to learn about than just a teacher reading right from a power-point. This website was also very easy to use and showed a clear step by step ideas on what to do and where to put what. I had a lot of fun with this website and I will use it when i have my own classroom. I also enjoyed learning about the kidspiration and inspiration because I seemed to use a lot more pictures than words to explain what was going on and I think younger kids will enjoy that to see the pictures and know what they go to. It was a fun way to put information together and show students how they relate to other things. I have been writing down all of these educational websites to use in my classroom when I become a teacher because I have really enjoyed these websites and I am sure students will to because its something different other than PowerPoint or word.

I also used Glogster for my interactive poster! I really enjoyed how you can engage students instead of using a powerpoint its more exciting and fun for students to learn this way! I have also enjoyed these websites and am excited to use them in my classroom!
ReplyDeleteGlogster is a great website, I think it would be a great project to have older students create their own Glogs. Glad you enjoyed it.
