Technology in the classroom
Filed Under (Uncategorized) by wchmaloney on 05-11-2009
I am very excited to be starting a blog with my students. It is all ready up and running. They will be blogging about the book Rules. The students have started the book and are really excited to blog. I’m a little nervous but also excited. I feel it is important to use technology in the classroom and that the students will benefit from commenting on the blog. They look forward to answering the questions I post and being able to communicate online. If you would like to visit our blog and comment I’m sure the students would love that. Also if you have any suggestions of ways to make the blog “work” for students I would be happy to have them. My blog is

Interesting! I am also ready to try blogging, but with another classroom in Wheatland-Chili who is reading the same book as us. Good luck, and please share highs and lows of the experience. Thanks.

Awesome. I think that’s a great idea Kevin. I think I’m going to try it with this class and thought if it works I will branch out more. I will share the highs and lows. Good luck with your blogging as well.

I think your students are really going to benefit from this experience. I’m still thinking of some way to use technology for my first grade math students.

This sounds really awesome and it is so cool that Kevin is blogging with another classroom in Wheatland-Chili! I just dont know how i can use this in math? Im just a beginner to all this and I feel so uncreative ): What can I do? Any ideas?

We have been blogging at wchmaloney.edublogs.org for two weeks now. It has been going pretty well besides some problems with getting on at school. The students have great insights and would love if other teachers post. Our 2nd blog titled Rules Blog #2 is about if Rules are good or bad so it applies to everyone.
Steph I’ll think about ways to use Technology in math and get back to you. Using the SMARTboard is a great start.
