Week 10

We Learned This Week..

In class this week we talked about how to use Power Point. We learned how we can post pictures on a slide and then put on a word document.

Means to Me as a Teacher/Student Right Now..

I have actually been working with power point for many years now. When I was in the ninth grade I took a class that taught you everything about power point. I did need the review though and I also needed the boost to get my creative juices moving. I could definitely use this program right now in my classes, especially for presentations.
I can see my self using it to create practice lesson plans and activities for my future classes. It is also a great program that I can use to share my ideas in a fun creative way. I really like to use it when I am in groups, because you can put all the information your group collects into a formal and organized format.

What About my Future Students?

I would think I would want to teach my students how to use this program so that they can use it to be creative with their projects. Also, I would want them to find new ways to do fun activities with power point. This would be useful to them as they move on to upper grades. It's something that they can take with them as they advance. They can also have a nice base for when newer versions come out.
Along with teaching my students how to use power point I would use it to teach them new subjects. Not only with lecture slides I would want to use it to make games and quiz activities. It would just be a fun tool to have at my disposal to make learning fun for my students.

Video

I am What I Learn. I love this video, not only she super sweet, but I loved how she connected everything she has learned about chickens to different subjects in her class. She also gave a small list of the many options she has for careers when she gets older because she has a fun hobby. This is an idea that I would use in my class. I would support my students in finding future jobs in subjects that they love. A job in only great when you love what you are doing!
