Learning Is Messy - Blog » Blog Archive » Process The Learning - 1 views

  •  
    Interesting article for elementary teachers.
  •  
    What do you think of this? DOes it surprise anyone?
  •  
    Having taught first grade, it's not surprising. Retention is not easy for these lil kiddos. It requires loads of revisits. But as the author noted, talking about it helps cement those connections. Taking time for this is difficult with soooooo much to do, but well worth the time. My goal---have students review their learning each day and have a "reporter" podcast this to our school website.

Walk in the Forest - 0 views

  •  
    Not sure what grade level this is for, but it's elementary, certainly. A fun site to begin the discussions about the critters in the woods.
  •  
    probably 3-5th grade; vocab and concepts a little difficult for primary, but still a great visual representation of forest habitat. Other "walks" are available back at the zoo main page. Also some neat links to live web cams at the zoo.

    When Alice Ozma was in the fourth grade, her family was going through a rough patch. Her parents had just split up, and her older sister had recently left for college. Ozma was suddenly spending a lot more time alone with her dad, Jim Brozina, an elementary school librarian. So Ozma and her father made a pledge: to read together every single night for 100 days.

iPad Technology in Speech Therapy: Overview - 0 views

  •  
    This blog shares an overview of using an iPad in speech therapy, and gives links to other resources to look at to get more ideas about using technology with speech therapy. I went through speech therapy in elementary school and middle school, and believe it could have been much more fun and effective if technology was implemented better. However, those resources did not exist in 2000. This is a good start though for learning more about the iPad technology for this field.

Indiana high school students required to rent netbooks - 0 views

  • the schools will rent netbooks to students for $70 per year on top of their existing annual textbook fee.
    • anonymous
       
      I wonder if THIS is a way to get computers into schools wihout breaking the budgets each year? What do you think?
  •  
    Interesting! A textbook fee too! Hmmmm..they may have something there. I think this is a good idea. Would like to see it in place for elementary too. It might get a bit dicey for families who have more than 2 children.

    I was talking about the computers, but mentioned textbooks because that was unusual to me.

      Does this sound familiar? Collaboration? Which group read that in the Horizon Report?
    • Scott Brewer
       
      Project teams sounds like something I would love to be a part of, and my students to be a part of!
    • Mrs Huber
       
      @Jim- Yes, this does sound familiar. I served on a tech steering committee this spring and that is how I learned of these standards. Not sure the school board knows of them though.

      Seems like using diigo would help us meet these standards:)

      I think letter C is fascinating - until yesterday, I hadn't thought about students communicating with other students around the WORLD.

      Before I had this class I didn't think Distance Learning was important, but when asked if I thought the district should get a set up for our elementary school, I said yes, since why say no! I hope we get it now because I will be able to use it with the knowledge I am gaining this week. Very cool!

      thoughts for 2.b. - We need to teach more than just office products!
    • Amy Soule
       
      Should they be allowed to text each other during class? That's communication, using one of their favorite formats!
    • Mary Richards
       
      This is particularly apt for middle school students who are very, very social! They love working in groups and do a better job of holding each other accountable than I do!
