Teaching with Technology

Getting this iPhone has got me thinking about how we could use it as a tool for letting parents know what has happened in the classroom that day. Since I downloaded the wordpress application this now has become a real possibility!

So I set up a class blog to see if this could really work. I’ve only done it for one day but I’m totally convinced that it’s the way forward!

There are several reasons why.
•It’s easy children can borrow my phone to type quick articles.
•It’s instant. The children can see their work online straight away.
•It’s visual. You can take pictures of the activities on the iPhone and publish them straight away brilliant!
•It gives the children the feeling that they are able to reach a global audience.

It also made me realize just how much you get through inn any one day – it’s exhausting.

Please have a look at the blog and leave them an encouraging comment www.charlestown.edublogs.org
