I am always looking for ways to integrate technology in my classroom and I am so happy that we now have up-to-date computers, projectors, and Elmos, but still wanting more (like a smart board). But just like you said, "Use what you have!"<br /><br />I am also your newest follower and would love for you to visit my blog!<br /><br />Patti<br />aseriesof3rdgradeevents.blogspot.comPatti Whitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00951600398669278683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4627021575952141141.post-22035603561618170222011-12-29T07:14:40.424-06:002011-12-29T07:14:40.424-06:00Cara, great post and soooo so true on #5.Cara, great post and soooo so true on #5.Jan Wellsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4627021575952141141.post-63226912091630337922011-12-28T03:29:46.644-06:002011-12-28T03:29:46.644-06:00Thought you might like benefit of my experience in...Thought you might like benefit of my experience in UK - was farmer of 20+ years when self-taught myself computers to do farm accounts etc. 10 years ago became a science teacher found when started was a lot of technophobia in teaching here in UK, Better now but still much resistance to both IT and 'new' things.<br /><br />I am trying to get our website www.discovering-our-countryside.co.uk used in schools. It provides a short fortnightly video of farming and countryside so teachers can educate pupils on seasonality of countryside and food production. When showing teachers it in person they say it's great but still dont use it in classroom!!! <br /><br />I think people are either 'into' IT or not, many of those not are frightened of it - still scared they will loose or break something!<br /><br />I have always said IT will really take off once people who have grown up with it are in top jobs - eg teachers! Then just you wait!!<br /><br />If you can think of a way to overcome this 'resistance' then please let me know. I am also thinking of using Twitter to follow some cows up to calving so class can follow this day by day then hopefully see film of calf being born - but again don't know how to get teachers to use such 'scary' technology!!!<br /><br />Sorry this comment is a bit long winded - but it is nice to find like minded people to sound off and exchange ideas with...Mark Thompsonhttp://www.discovering-our-countryside.co.uk/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4627021575952141141.post-64165933563643892422011-12-27T21:11:14.975-06:002011-12-27T21:11:14.975-06:00I think I might go with kid blog.

Edmodo is a Facebook type platform but you can create a closed group for only your class. Students can easily respond to each other. I also like Kidblog which is an easy to use blog where your students can comment to each other's posts. I use both in my classroom.Dr. Cara Whitehead, NBCThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18423389650094758129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4627021575952141141.post-12476653474204463432011-12-27T20:12:42.195-06:002011-12-27T20:12:42.195-06:00I am wanting to integrate technology into my 6th g...I am wanting to integrate technology into my 6th grade room and I have a question for you.
