First Graders in Ms. Cassidy’s Class

     I really enjoyed watching the video “First Graders in Ms. Cassidy’s Class” because it was so interesting and provided a great example of how teachers incorporate technology in the classroom. For first graders, it is amazing how they use technology accurately. I find it inspiring because I am going to teach elementary education and hope to incorporate technology in my classroom. I have never thought about using blogs and skype in my classroom but now having that I have seen your message it makes me want to provide my students the best education by introducing technology. To do this I believe Ms. Cassidy is correct that we have to keep learning and using the latest technology available because it is a part of a student’s future. One of the methods that I would like to use in my classroom is skype because I feel it could really get the children involved in technology and communicating with other classrooms across the world. I agree with Ms. Cassidy and hope to teach many of her methods, like blogging, videos and even fun items like Nintendo DS.
