Teaching and inspiration blog




Hello I am Miss. Bostock, I try my hardest to include all my students in activities so that each kind of learner is taking part. 


Before reading the articles I was iffy with blogging since I have never gotten into blogging myself nor have I ever really read blogs unless it was for school. Almost as though blogs were not thought in my mind and not important to me.

 
In the three blogs I have recently read I feel I agree with how these educators feel since it can often be difficult to know what it is like going into another teachers class and having no idea "what is going on behind the closed," (Couros). Before reading George  Couros blog I did not think of the negative thoughts that could appear in ones mind if my classroom door is closed. As well, reading Kathleen Morris blog post it came to my attention that social media and technology is highly used in todays society, "a classroom blogging program offers ongoing opportunities to discuss internet safety and appropriate online behaviours in an authentic setting," (Morris). I agree with her because many parents do not teach their child how to be responsible when using the internet. Finally, being able to find and use teaching resources increases your knowledge as a teacher but also helps with information you can use while teaching. I agree with Bethany Petty's blog post that starting a teacher blog can increases opportunities to become a better teacher, "when you begin to publicly share what you do in your classroom, you start holding yourself and your teaching to a different standard" (Petty). In conclusion my views on blogs have greatly been changed after reading other peoples teaching blogs. #reflectiononblogs #teacherblogging

      I have learned that by being a blogger not only can you share your ideas with other educators but, also follow teacher blogs to learn new ideas for in the classroom. It is important to share your personal ideas with other teachers since they could add insight to improve the way you teach or yourself as blogger can give new teachers ideas on how to approach their teaching years. As a result, my opinions on blogging has changed drastically.     I enjoyed reading Ms.Cassidy's  blog since I have family who live in Moose Jaw as well as they are also teachers. I found the different activities she shared gave me a better knowledge of different learning opportunities myself and my future students could experience. This teacher blogger taught many hands on experiences that kept the students attention but also  incorporated all the different kinds of learners in a classroom setting.      I feel with this blog they talk about active problems and how these problems could be resolved.

Reflective Blog

 There were many different outcomes that were excepted to be completed at the end of the course. Each outcome related to different ideas of what I needed to know by the end. I learned many new ideas and tech skills while being in my Ed Tech class. An example is Scratch Jr and learning how to code, at first I felt it was difficult and I became frustrated with it however, once I was able to get the hang of what was being asked it became easy to follow along. I felt I was fairly prepared when it came to my tech skills for this class since I use technology each day whether it is at work or school. I did however, extend my knowledge and learned about new apps and different tech skills that can be used to enhance my skills.  SAMR was an important article that was talked about in my class this semester. It enhances my idea of how different technologies can be used to help learners. I can use this technology to allow me to have different ideas of where each of my students can be with what is b
