Yahoo! My Power point is done! I am surprised that it turned out so amazingly "cute" There are 18 slides, many of which include pictures. My subject matter was 1776 and the Declaration of Independence and our separation from England. I had so much fun researching this and locating pictures that I was considering doing a part 2 on the Founding Fathers, however I am now considering using this subject as a Problem Based Learning lesson. I recently found a great website on our school computers that I believe is acceptable for second grade researching. This will work great if we decide to use this for our Problem Based Learning lesson. In connection with my Game Plan I have also learned how to project this new power point with an LCD player. All of this is quite an accomplishment for me being I am very "Old School". I have it in my plans to use this with my students on Monday, October 11, 2010. Wish me luck.
Part 2 of my Game Plan involves my school community doc sharing website. I have submitted one document for sharing. I think this site is slow in getting off the ground. I will continue to try to become more familiar with this but I believe our entire staff is struggling with becoming more familiar with it. I think with anything new it takes time for people to become comfortable with using it.
