We are writing lesson plans, to turn in as a final,that incorporate technology in them. It has been hard for me to think of ideas on what I should put in my lesson plans. We are supposed to come up with an idea that is unique to a previous lesson plan. I have come up with a few ideas like having the students learn a language over a web cam conversation with someone native to a different country or have the students make a film strip/movie with students in another country comparing the subject in 2 different cultures. We'll see what I end up doing, I'll keep brainstorming.
Using technology in the classroom is something that is new to me because when I was in school we hardly ever used technology, besides going to computers. I believe that it will enhance students' learning. It will not only enhance their learning but it will also prepare them to use technology skills later on in their life.
Now that I have expanded my knowledge in technology, I am able to take what I have learned to my future classroom. Along with that, I can build upon that foundation and learn more as technology is updated. I am excited to experiment around with technology and find new ideas that I can use in my classroom.

School House Rock: Preamble
This movie is a classic! Some of my teachers in either Jr. High or High School had us watch it. That is the way that I was able to learn/memorize the Preamble. I can still sing the song today with all of the words! I believe that this movie is very helpful for students in learning the Preamble.
