After last weeks fun "About Me" activity on Pic Collage, I wanted week two to concentrate on the technology side of things. I wanted to know what students think about technology, how much experience they have with it, and how they use it. I decided to use Keynote because it is an easy way to have students interact with technology while answering questions that you give them. It is also easy to add links to additional sites or information through it.
I wanted my students to answer questions about technology and then us discuss them as a class. Enter my Technology Interactive Lesson. I used this in each of my 1-4 grade classrooms, and even though the first graders took longer to spell and type, it was a hit in each class.
This is honestly a great introduction activity to see what students already know about technology. There are a few brainstorming questions that ask questions like what they wish technology would do for them! Listen to them and have them share their amazing ideas like creating something to stop a hurricane, or a robot that can cook all of their food for them. It is amazing to hear what their little minds can come up with and whats important to them. Sometimes you even get a little snapshot into their lives.
Here are a few sample shots from the activities.
