Voice Thread

I watched:
1. Caroline- location of the moon
2. Kate- changes and phases of the moon
3. Leslie- kidspiration and sink and float


I really enjoyed watching the various voice threads and getting to know all the options that are out there to help me integrate technology into my science curriculum. I really liked using Stellarium to show how the moon changes in location and has phases. It would be a great way for kids to learn how to make predictions, analyze date, and make graphs about what they have learned, allowing them to really go through the scientific process. I also liked kidspiration and how it added a whole new dimension to creating activities that kids can work hands on with during science lessons. I look forward to using some of these tools in my future classroom and implementing technology more fully in my science objectives! I think using technology will make the activities more rememberable and help make lessons more contextualized!
