    I saw a teacher use images of butterflies from this website for a first grade lesson on symmetry; they were printed in black and white and the students were asked to color them in using symmetrical colors--they were beautiful!!

    Actually here is the link for the already gray-scale and black-and-white butterflies that are used for coloring: http://www.butterflyutopia.com/butterfly_coloring_page.html

    Editor's Note: Diane Ravitch is taking a break from the blog this week, and Deborah Meier is blogging in her place today. Bridging Differences will begin its Thanksgiving holiday tomorrow and return next week. I'm back from Chicago-my sort-of second home. I spent my "off hours" arguing, as usual, with my friend Mike Klonsky.

  • “focused on giving children a real voice in the broader, often very adult, discussion of future technologies and real-world problem solving.”
  • they can teach us not only about their own needs and desires, but also about our own future preferences and how technology might help us solve bigger, global problems
  • digital natives allow us to see unrestrained possibilities for Web-based developments
  • ...4 more annotations...
  • We found that today’s children intuit a very seamless connection between online and offline worlds
  • A strong trend in the pictures the children drew was a break down in the barrier between the physical and digital worlds, with children appearing to see no difference between ‘real’ and ‘computer-based’ activities.
  • today’s children see technological devices as a natural extension of themselves
  • Current initiatives include Trash to Treasure, another illustration-based study which looks to kids for new ways to recycle and manage waste

    This is a great article on what our students, the "Digital Natives" can teach us about technology! I have highlighted what I found to be the most interesting and insightful quotes from the article!

    So this isn't super educational, however it emphasizes the use of technology with children from an early age. We've seen lots of youtube videos of 15 month old babies using iPads and iPhones (my nephew included!) - yet here it is reinforced on a TV commercial.

      This is something that we should try to replicate either national or statewide in the United States. Maybe it's already been done?

    A great Web Quest for 2nd grade students! Students pretend they are scientists and are exploring the stages of the butterfly life cycle. Students are split up into groups and explore one specific stage. They find their information from books, the internet, and YouTube videos! Then groups then share their findings!
