Week Eight (8)

As they say, OMG!!! Taking that test was quite informative and sad, actually. Since June 9th when I started this course, to now, I have forgotten ALOT of what I had watched in the online training sessions. I still stay, for me, doing something over and over is the only way for me to remember how to do it. These online activities and tools are so foreign to me because I do not ever use them!! However, that being said, if I were in a classroom, I would certainly incorporate several sites into my daily routine. One of my favorite would be to use Google earth to check another part of the world each day. I think that alot of kids don't ever experience any other part of the state, let alone the country and this would be very interesting to them. There would be so many projects that could be used in the classroom that would include many other applications we learned about in the Century 21 Skills. As a PE aide, I did not find anything that we could use in our setting outside. Even inside, we do not have use of a computer to access these activities. I will be able to understand terms that own kids use at home and if needed can go to Atomic Learning for a myriad of help if the need arises.
