Our last week of field was this week. We ended up finishing our two lessons. We used the smart board for our final lesson when we did a review about everything they had learned in the five previous lessons. We decided we wnated to do a virtual road trip. We found a video on youtube that was a video of someone driving through Utah, it also had music to it. IT was really fun to turn that on between pictures that we reviewed. The kids really enjoyed it. We also did a slideshow through google docs and put in pictures that we used in our digital story and reminded them of what we had learned and what landroms and resources are in Utah.
All in all, I learned that if teachers do not use technology, the kids are bored. They are a different generation and in order to reach them and teach them, we must use technology. they use it everyday in their lives and they respond to it. I will definitely use technology in everything possible. If I am lucky enough to have a smartboard, well that would be wonderful because they were so great to use.
