I decided to go back to my own 3rd grade teacher and look at his website. His name was Mr.Smith and he works at West Windsor Plainsboro Millstone River Middle School. When first looking at his website you can see his name and what room he is in, address of the school, his email, and the schools phone number, you can also see some of his favorite things, theatre and Star Wars. On the side you can see a welcome back letter, supply list, parent reminder sign up, the schedule, scholastic book orders, and lunch menus.  Link: wwp4-5.sharpschool.com I can envision myself using some Web 2.0 tools such as class dojo.

They are wonderful for teachers since they help assist in teaching students and have them do it on their own. For example, text to speech tools are extremely helpful for students who struggle to read out loud or to pay attention to a book. Recorded books also helpful for students who struggle reading from a book but are great listeners. I've seen many students use touch screen in special needs programs because it assists with the use of their small Motor skills and they enjoy it much more then using a mouse. Some challenges I can see are the beginning process of teaching how to use this new technology and make the best use of it. I would use powerpoint to create by having my student make their own powerpoint on a certain subject for example learning the history of a certain number and how they see it in their every day life. I could do a lesson on t...
