Frustrations

I think some of us are just as frustrated as our students. We need tech support that understands what we do in our classrooms and at our sites.

Our Pledge

MySpace Celebrity and Katalyst present The Presidential Pledge

Middle School Learning 2.0

Summer is over:( Time to face the reality that I'll be a classroom teacher this year. I am fortunate that I'll be at the same school I've taught at for 12 years. Instead of being the Teacher Librarian, I'll be teaching two sections of LASS (6th grade language arts and social studies) and a computer research elective for 6th graders. The elective is part of the 6th grade rotation; a 5 week long course covering a variety of topics including languages, computer graphics, art, music, drama and my Computer Connections unit. I've decided to utilize CSLA's Middle School Learning 2.0 for the elective. I plan on having students work on 2 "Things" per week, with an emphasis on web site evaluation, cyber safety and being a good online citizen.

Wish me luck....
