REVIEW:
Teachers who are new to integrating technology into the curriculum
or veterans will find great lessons and ideas at this site. These
“are examples of how technology can be used as a valuable
tool in your classroom.” The lesson plans include Fine Arts,
Language Arts, Mathematics, Science, Social Studies, Special Education,
and Technology. They cover a variety of topics from the Iditarod
to the Underground Railroad to simple machines to fossil fuels and
much more. These lesson plans aren’t new, but they are good
examples of how to implement technology use in the classroom and
will give even the veteran teacher fresh ideas for developing their
own plans. |
