Betty’s Instructional Technology Blog

I will be giving a series of workshops in the next few weeks along with computer lab teachers in my district that focus on integrating technology into various subject areas. The first will focus on language arts literacy. We will cover various ways to use digital storytelling. We will also use del.icio.us, a social bookmarking site, as a means of collecting various web site resources that can be retrieved from any site that has Internet access.

The following is a link to my presentation: http://www.gtps.k12.nj.us/technology/Tech_LAL/_Tech%20LAL_files/frame.htm. Participants should comment on this blog entry for their exit ticket. Please answer the following questions:

1. Name 1 thing you learned
2. Name something you will try with your students
3. Write a question/concern/comment you may have

With state testing around the corner, we are always looking for new resources to help our students learn various skills.

Thanks to one of Galloway’s third grade teachers, Terry Dougherty, for sharing a wonderful site that helps students in grades K-3 with reading.

Other literacy sites for grades K-8 can be found on Galloway’s student home page under literacy.
