Reflection after using technology

Using this spreadsheet was difficult to do to a certain extent but easy as the same time. The difficult part was having the students rotate to use the computer and to take turns to create their group page. All the students wanted to participate in doing it. A good fix for this would be to incorporate this type of technology in the very begining so the students are more aware of how to use. I liked using this because it was different for my students. It made them feel like "big" kids when they would enter their estimated and actual data. The students enjoyed the thinking process in creating their own page by putting the information where they wanted to place it.

1st grade with technology!!!!

wow! I am so nervous to use technology with my students. My students are all wonderful but are a handful and a half. The technology that my students will create is a capacity spread sheet where students will place their estimate and the actual amount. Each student will go to the assigned computer in the classroom in their groups to enter the information. Once they have completed their tasks the students will go back to the assigned computer and enter the actual amount.
