Tardy. . .

And here it is, the 13th of October while I am pulling together my September post. At this point, I'm not sure if I'm tardy, or just plain delinquent. All of this to say that my technology goals sat pretty much untouched for September. Working on back to school paperwork and files, hands on with the students, getting to know them, building relationships, working to build a comfort level for each of them and a consistent classroom routine left my aspirations to incorporate new media in the background. I can report that my touchscreen computer now has SMART Notebook capabilities, so I can use more activities with the children individually and in large group. I registered for a TIES SMART Board class and have some new resources of existing online learning games to begin using. I would have to say that most of the time I have been able to devot to the new technology is checking out new resources to evaluate the appropriateness for use with my 3 and 4 year olds, which becomes more time consuming than I expected. On the digital music front, I will be uploading my music this weekend.
