JOURNAL 6

      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...

JOURNAL 4

      For my standards I chose 4th grade which is one of the grades I would be interested in teaching in the future. For my standard I chose LAFS.4.RI.3.7 which asks the students be able to interpret graphs or other  visual or auditorial elements and explain how it connects and contributes to the surrounding text. The technology used includes Prezi which is a presentation app, and make a graph which is an online graph maker, as well as PBS kids. Based off my current technology skill levels I feel I could successfully implement this is a classroom setting. Im familiar with all of these websites and could teach kids how to navigate and use them efficiently and successfully.      For my CPALMS resource I chose second grade resources because that is the other grade I'm interested in teaching. For my subject area I chose history because its my favorite subject! The resource I then chose was Choosing a Host For the Olympic Games. Which al...
