Gracie’s daily life

I found this really cool website called class dojo, its a way for teaher and students to connect with their teacher and their class. https://www.classdojo.com

 Assignment 5 was challenging but fun!! It took me a very long time to get the hang of making my game work and actually be able to be interactive. Once I got it, it was super fun. I really liked this assignment and think it will be very useful for my future career as a teacher. I hope to use PowerPoints like these in my future classroom one day.  Surveys can be very helpful for teachers. In my classroom, I will use surveys to maybe decide what the kids want to focus on that day, for example I want to teach second grade math so like multiplication or 3 digit addition. I will give them a survey of what they want to do. I will also ask them for feedback, such as their favorite and least favorite part of my class is.  I found a lot of things interesting from my classmates blogs. The most interesting I think hearing everyones different uses for technology, and how they're going to use technology in their future classrooms is really interesting. We all have such different opini...

 I really thoroughly enjoyed making my website. I thought it was fun and could be very helpful for my future teaching career. I will definitely have a website to keep the parents and family members of my students up to date with what we're doing in the classroom. I had to create a website for my English class but we used Wix instead, so I was familiar with website building this was just a different platform for me to use. I thought this assignment was practical and lots of fun.  https://missgerlach.weebly.com Diigo is a really cool collaborative app. I had never used this site before so the whole thing was extremely new and confusing to me. I'm still unsure if I'm in. the right class because sometimes our class shows up and sometimes it doesn't. In the future if I get the hang of working with it I could defiantly find it useful to communicate and learn from other teachers, and use to communicate and teach my students.  https://powergistics.com/education-technology-trend...

      My experience using Diigo has been kind of rough so far. I have been struggling to get into the class, my invitation never came through my email. I then tried adding the class and it is still not working. So, so far my experience has been kind of frustrating. I'm hoping to have this issue resolved soon, and then get more involved in my Diigo skills.      I have thoroughly enjoyed blogging. I think in my future classroom I will for sure use a blog to keep the parents and families up to date on what's happening in my classroom. I like how customizable you can make the blogging process. If you want to keep your flog short and sweet, you can do that but if you want it longer you can do that as well. I also love how formal or informal you can make it. Its all u to you!! For me, another Web 2.0 tool I will use during my teaching career is  YouTube. Especially during covid times, being able to record helpful videos for...
