Reflection

I am so close to the end of finishing my Winter semester. I cannot believe it. Some days it felt like I would never see the end, and some days I could not get time to slow down. I have learned so much over the last 10 weeks. Here is just a few thing I have learned, new ways to incorporate technology into my lessons, stimulating higher order thinking for students, creating a Twitter, and creating a blog! Learning and doing all of these thing required me to step out of my comfort zone. Whenever someone steps out of their comfort zone, it can be a scary thing, but I am glad I did. I absolutely love learning new things, especially if it helps be become a better teacher. Learning to incorporate new technology has been favorite so far. We learned about this App called Flipgrid. It is a fun and great way to assess students understanding. They also have a lot of fun with it as well! Learning how to stimulate high order thinking with my students has been a learning curve. I how importance of it, so I want to become better at it. I know it is a skill that will come with time! Creating a Twitter and a Blog has been awesome! It was a little intimidating at first, but over time I have grown to love it. I have found it to be a great place to connect with other educators and share ideas and also a place for me to share my thoughts. It has been a busy semester and I have learned so much in such a short amount of time. I plan on taking all that I have learned and taking it with me for when I become a teacher!
