**JOURNAL**

URL- http://www.fno.org
from now on
1. What did I learn?
- Under the science list I went under a tab specified as “Promoting Thinking”. Under table of contents I went under module 5: “How do images tell a story?” I learned that pictures mean a lot…within the picture that was in this page, I learned that the image they had was from a hero who was part of a “dramatic event” that happened in Calis. It is important for images to be taken or status to be formed because many people who are disease and I didn’t get to see , now I can see who they were/how they looked due to pictures taken of them. I also learned that Saint Pierre was the first of 6 citizens who surrender.

1. What else do I want to learn?

- Even though I have mentioned before, I would like to really learn more about second life. Now that it has come to our attention that this will be part of our second block, it’s now concerning me more.

teacher tap

1. What did I learn?
- Under teacher tap I discovered the page of “Homework Spot”. I learned that this web site helps students who are having problem finishing or getting their homework started. They have a reference spot where children, teenagers and young adults could get ideas to start any homework. Under the elementary section, they have a link for technology and they help students learn to manage a computer. They help them surf the internet and provides them quick references that are very helpful.
1. What else do I want to learn?
- Within this page I would like to learn more about their Science Fair link. I think I would find it interesting because now in days science is being kept behind by schools. Its amazing how there are various helps and ideas around the internet. Getting to know more about technology would be just something I would like to learn overall.

* Web Based Resource*

1. What did I learn?

  • Today I visited http://www.education-world.com “Education World”. I went under the tab that said “Tech Integration” since our class is about technology. I thought that blogging was only for higher aged children but today I learned that Elementary children blog too. I have never imagined that if I hadn’t visited this page. As a future teacher, this got to my interest because I could use this for a class assignment. I learned that based on research, it has come to be that children write more when they are using the blogs.

2. What else would I like to learn?

  • Well, there are a whole lot of things I want to learn. Without a doubt, I beleive that every day we learn different things and that's what makes it wonderful of life. I would in fact like to learn more details about technology. I have to confess that I really am not a technology person but I will sure learn to cope with it for the better of my future students.

**ORGANIZATION**

1.What did I learn?

  • K12connection.org was an interesting website to visit because it gives great ideas and times to use with children. I like it because as a mother I could find great educational resources to use with my daughter. I learned that this web site has other different web sites within, which carry great opportunities for people who want to become a teacher or want to home school kindergarten children. Under Best Educational Toys, I visited Kids Educational Toys which I liked because there were toys that covered math, science, art/music and many other sections.

2. What else do I want to learn?

  • I would like learn and know if children who use educational toys really have an impact with their daily tasks or homeworks. From technology, I would like to learn more about choco breaker and how to create an eduactional game for children.
