This week has been quite an eye opening experience. We taught part of
out history unit. It was interesting what the students considered fun,
and what we thought they would enjoy. There was a powerpoint that we
had them look at to find information over one of the cultures we are
studying. I was worried it was something they had done enought that
they might not think it was very exciting. Instead, they really enjoyed
it because we let them get into groups and have their own laptops. They
did really well answering the questions and being able to maneuver the
project. They knew the rules for the laptops and obeyed the ones we
mentioned because we let them know ahead of time what we expected.
The main issue that I would like to work on is really watching the time
during the projects and maybe even have a timer to keep track of how
much time for each thing, whether it is a poster they are working on or
an online assignment.
I am really enjoying teaching our unit, but was not expecting so many
ideas to be of use and still need more. I am using all the resources
that I have been given, and am finding the internet to be my best
friend.
