C4K summery of September

I was assigned Frankie's Blog, one of Mrs. Lgitupu's students. In Frankie's blog he wrote a letter to the prime minister about has worries of the use of plastic bags. He wrote about the dangers of using the plastic bags and the damage that can be done in our creatures . I commented, "Hi Frankie. I agree with you that plastic bags should be banned from the water. I think the plastic bags do not break down in water and they are killing our creatures."


I was assigned Madame Thamoase. The blog post name is My Mark. She spoke about making a mark in world and about the power of the educator and collaboration. I like how it is the goal of connected educators around the word to help as many students as possible. I commented, "Madame! I agree with you. I believe in the power of educators and how important it is to connect education around the world to help as many as students as possible."

I was assigned Noah's blog.The blog name is "School Change". He wrote about making the change in school rules to be more flexible. I commented, "Hi Noah ! I agree that we need to change some things in the school to be more flexible, but all the rules are there to protect the rights of all students."

Project #8 Book Trailer


Blog post # 6

 Project Based Learning Part 1 and 2:Experiences of 3rd Grade Teacher.The project based learning can cover a variety of different subjects in one project and is effective for learning the content. I learned how to create a PBL plan, and it is more appealing to students.The important thing is that you should go by the standards of the state to make sure the student is learning the content that is needed. iCurio is a site which allows students to safely search websites and filter them for eduction purposes. Discovery Education is a site that has taken mostly all lesson plans and turned them into videos for students.This is good for the classroom and enriches the students' learning experience. In the Anthony -Strange List of Tips for teachers Part 1, they explain that the teacher should be interested in learning. The teacher has to be creative in order to come up with lesson plans and be flexible. Don't Teach Tech -Use It. In this video, Dr.Strange and Mr.Capps explain the good thing about allowing for the students to use technology. As a teacher, you shouldn't be surprised if the student is better at creating PowerPoint than you, but make sure you can help when they have questions.

What is PLN you may ask?
 A PLN is a personal learning network made up of the people and tools that someone can call upon for help, consultation, collaboration or other assistance. According to building your PLN -A prime tool for anyone, it connects you to people around the world. I agree with the idea of having a network of people to communicate ideas with. The symbaloo allows you a way to organize everything in one location like eduction sites and social sites. You can use the web site Netvibes to organize and keep track of your PLN resources. Both symbaloo and Netvibes are effective.

After I read the My wonderful PLN, I realized that it is very important for teachers to have PLNs. As a teacher, I need it to do more research on any particular thing. A PLN is supportive, as Buyuksimkesyan said in her blog. The addition to my PLN will be other teachers. I do it now in Blogger. I have to start following Dr. Strange.

I was assigned Doug Peterson's post. The first post I read was improved word press.He talks about  how you can make a blog on blogger and word press. He describes the word press editor, and he thinks the editor is simpler for students to use than blogger. I commented, "Hi, I am a student at the University of South Alabama.I like the way you assist your students in making their first blog as easily as possible."

The second post I read was about student engagement. This post was about how Mr.Doug Peterson participated with Sophia Mavridi in a panel discussion at 5th foreign language from Athens, Greece.This way students could  learn fast. This means compliance and academic achievement come faster to the students . I commented that I could use these in my future classroom that will be helpful to the students.

Blog post #4

What questions do we ask? How do we ask?

Ben Johnson brought up some points in his article "The right way to ask questions". This article explains that it is important to ask questions and make sure your students are understanding the material you teach them. He selected students randomly. This keeps the students interested in the questions he asks.


I like how he asks the students for their opinions on the subject.This helps the other students to understand the material and your students must listen to what you are teaching to be able to answer your question. This keeps the students engaged by looking at the process in a different light.


I learned a good strategy that when we ask questions, make sure to give the student enough time to answer and never interrupt the student while they are answering. Tell the students to not be afraid to  ask wrong questions because he or she thinks it is a stupid question. I think as the teacher, I should encourage them to ask questions.

Remember to stay positive.The second step is to make suggestions,to give clear suggestion and to help about word choice ,details, organization,sentence and topic.The third step is to make corrections.To make good correction , look for mistakes in grammars , spelling, missing or incorrect punctuation and incomplete or run-on sentences.
