Tool # 11

1. Favorite tools are:
* Brainpop for a lesson on digital citizenship.
*Wordle
* Wallshire
*Google Docs and apps.

2. My thinking has changed by getting new ways  I can teach with technology and all the new devices. For accommodations, I will include the technology resources on lesson plans and have the Itouch with apps ready for centers.

3. I know I need to explore apps to download them to my devices. Also, I need to think how to arrange my classroom for the new technology. What's surprise me it's I have learned many new tools and have realized how much more I need to learn.

Tool # 10

Digital Citizenship:
1. It is very important for students to know about personal safety-identity, giving out information, etc. They also need to know about going to websites that are not appropriate and what to do when that happen =tell a teacher or parent=. Also, they need to be aware of the dangers of downloading websites, information and viruses.
2. I will use the video on Brainpop and the Cyber Smart Young Kids.
3. I will teach the lesson of Digital Citizenship by: 1) Discussion; 2) Brainpop; and 3) Practicing in the classroom.
4. I will include all of the information that we learn from the Digital Citizenship's lesson on a newsletter to send home.
