Reflection on a lesson

I have 7 LEAP students, so on Tuesday my class is smaller giving me more flexibility to use technology  I am more confident helping a smaller group. I attempted to you Glogster for a science review. It was great. The students explored the features and I did not help them. I told them they couldn't mess it up, just to have fun and try new things. This lesson went so well I decided to continue it the next day with my whole class. During this lesson Glogster did not work. I was so upset and discouraged. I expect a website to function when I need it. The problem was not my students, computers, or devices, it was the actual website. GRRRRRRRRRRRRR!

Unconference

I presented at the unconference. My topic was taking your blog to the next level. The last time I presented all  my "students" were new to blogging. Because of this I was able to start at the beginning  This year everyone had a blog and was on a different level. This was challenging because not everyone was in the same place. I opted to not formally present and instead I went around to help people. This made me reflect on using technology in my classroom. I need to differentiate in technology just like I do in all other subjects.
