This lesson sourced from the National Geographic Education site has students explore the California Gold Rush from boom towns to ghost towns. After gathering sources from the Nat Geo site, students will create a virtual timeline for the rush in the form of an interactive museum box.

This lesson is about friendship conflict resolution (problem solving) which correlates to the 3rd grade Friendship Unit.  SW write a story then use it to create an animated comic about friendship.

3 things that I learned:

1. I learned how to set up a binder with really cool math games for my first graders

2.  I learned that we now have new standards which replaced the essentials

3.  I discovered many new websites and saved them in my favorites or my binder

4.  I learned from my instructor and colleagues and appreciated their patience

I am not confident with all that I learned, but hope with practice I will become more proficient at this!

I learned how to navigate new websites, gather information for the subjects I teach during the day and be resourceful with my computer time.

I would like to know how many teachers in Kindergarten really use voki in the classroom ans at point of the day?

Will we receive a hard copy of information given today via  technology tool as a tutorial?

I have learned various resources (thinkifinity, voki, livebinders etc) I can use to enhance student learning, I have learned how to utilize resources that have already been created, and I have learned a bit about how to utlize each of those resources. I would like to learn more about how to navigate through these sites and ways of implementing them. I would like to learn how to create my own wiki through cms and pbworks.

Learned

1. I had started playing with Voki and never gotten back to it, so I’m glad I had some more time and pushing to play some more with it.
2. Livebinders is a great organizational tool, and I’m interested to see how I’ll be able to have my students use them.
3. I had heard about thinkfinity, but not done anything with it, so now I’ve had time to see how much there is

Not confused about any items presented and no questions at this time.

Thanks, Gale, for sharing your expertise.
