This week i learned about Google sites again in doing our imaginary classroom web page assignment. On this web page i created my classroom calendar and i found out how much fun this program on Google sites can be for me and my students. I think it will be a more appropriate tool for my older students to use starting in about second grade. On this program my students can view upcoming assignments, classroom trips, and breaks from school. I especially like creating this calendar because i can tell my students in a message box what will be included in the assignment or tell them what we will be learning in class that day so if they are absent from class they know what we did and what homework was due so they don't have to bug me about it except to get the assignment.
This tool can also be very beneficial to my students parents. So they know what i am teaching the students in our classroom and so they know what assignments are due. I think this is also a good program for parents because most children are not honest about what homework they have when their parents ask them and this site will allow the parents to know what homework is due for their child and teach them discipline and this will in turn make my job as a teacher more rewarding and easier to attain because i will not have to nag my students about turning in their homework. It will also be nice for parents to use google sites calendar for our classroom and can be used as a classroom newsletter so they know about upcoming field trips our class will be attending and print out the calendar to post in their home so they can prepare for them effectively. This will also prevent the students from losing the newsletters which will create a lot less havoc for both me and my students parents.
I will definitely be implementing this web page into my future classroom because i can see the positive benefits of using it for me, my students and my parents.
I also enjoyed writing a professional paragraph of myself for my students, parents and future employers to learn more about me and my passion for teaching and i also included my top ten dreams to help my students see that one of my dreams was to be a teacher at a young age.
