Day 2 Reflection Post

 Reflection Post Day 2

I spent some time on my PLN today I created a board on pinterest to help keep my technology ideas in one place. I spent some time reading different ideas on some different teacher’s blog posts. It was really eye opening to see all the different ideas out there. I feel more secure in using technology with the support of all the different bloggers out there. I want to try to use the idea of asking for old phones/ipads like I found so that I can have more technology in the classroom without having to put in for the carts.

I think a flipped classroom is a great idea to help students who maybe are missing a step in the learning. It is a great tool for them to be able to go back and review/relearn what they missed out on. The flipped classroom also helps the students to stay more connected with their learning at home and take more ownership.

I am planning to do my lesson on main idea in reading. It’s a topic that students sometimes need a little more support in. There are lots of ways to use technology in teaching it. I want to do a flipped lesson on how main idea is like a table and the legs are the support. There are lots of tools out there that can help bring this flipped lesson to life. I think it will be very helpful to have this lesson to use with some of my students who may need to have it reinforced during the school year.
