Newsletter

Context:I did this newsletter in technology 3750 on 9/12/05. The newsletter was to handout in my internship classroom to give the kids a little information about me.  

Impact:A newsletter in general is a great idea for a classroom. The children in the class I am interning for have all decided to make a newsletter about themselves for me. This will help them to learn more about technology through my teaching and it will help me as the teacher to learn more about them so I can understand them better. It also helped me to learn how to use microsoft word a little better and to work with miscrosoft publisher. If I chose to teach children how to do a newsletter it would meet these competencies:

Computer Technology Skills - Grade 4  Objective 2.06: Identify, discuss and use terms/ conceptsof menu and tools etc. in a word processing document. Strand - keyboard utilization/ word processing/ desk top publishing.

Alignment: This assignment meets these NETS-T Technology Standards and this is why:

NETS-T  V- C Using technology in the classroom to increase producivity by posting the newsletter on the web instead of having to tell each individual person about you and take up more time you could also hand out hard copies on the first day of class as well and have the students do the same. 

NETS-T  V- D Using technology to communicate and collaborate with peers and parents and the community. You can do this by having this newsletter accessible on the web for parents  and community to view and to learn more about you as their childrens teacher. Also for students to be able to access to see their teacher and learn about them as a real person.
