Reflection - Week 4
I have begun to utilize several of the things I have researched in my class. During our Friday computer lab trips, I am able to allow the students to use the "kid friendly" sites I have found. I also signed up for several teacher collaboration and communication sites where I have found a load of resources for my classroom! One site that I really find EXTREMELY useful is www.jmeacham.com . This teacher is truly dedicated to her work and you can tell she spends lots of time planning to make sure her classroom is fully engaged at all times. I don't know if my days in the classroom will be totally technology efficient right away, but I am begining to gradually introduce the importance of technology so maybe one day, my students will find the usefulness of learning how to use it.

This Mrs. Meachum is one dedicated teacher! Wow! Wherever does she find the time to keep up with such an extensive website? She has even licensed her materials. I was surprised that she does not have advertisers on her page. I’m sure she gets enough hits that someone would pay there to advertise. As far as the site itself, some links are not working, but there is no shortage of ideas.
I also wonder how much time it took for Mrs. Meachum to create this website and how much time it takes to maintain it. I am sure students and their parents appreciate the effort.
Hey Andreah. Thanks for the cute site. I will pass it on to my elementary teacher friends. I too have really tried to keep up with everything we are discussing and all the sites that are or will be useful to me in the future. There have been too many times in which I try to back track to find something that I thought would be a great resource, and I can't find it in all the message boards and postings!
