Blog Post #5 Part B
PLNS
My PLN is still a work in progress. I have found it useful to keep websites I often use for class or even things I may use in everyday life on this. I am slowly working on filling up the page with website after website. I like the thought of using a PLN in a classroom because the students will have access to everything they need on one page.

Curiosity in Young Learners Is the Foundation of Academic Success
This post is about how preschoolers are starting to make meaning out of the world around them. It talks about how this helps them later learn complicated math and science. My first comment is "My name is Jennifer Parker and I attend the University of South Alabama. How do you know the students are interpreting everything the correct way for them to learn complicated math and science?"
Comment #2 : Hello,
My name is Jennifer Parker and I attend the University of South Alabama. I'm interested in becoming a Kindergarten teacher. I'm also expecting my first child. As a future teacher and mother, I found this very informing. Thank you for sharing.

Teaching our children can be a profession
- Giving far more school choices to families
- Using Technology to improve teaching and learning
- Adopting a knowledge-based curriculum
- Starting education before a child is 5 years old
- Professionalize teaching
Yes, teaching should be professionalized! However, maybe we should think a little more on the guidelines and the requirements for a teacher to become a professional, like a doctor or lawyer.

How would you introduce technology to your Kindergarten Class
Prepare a lesson after the first week of school to show your new students how to use an iPad and computer. Plan the lessons based on your knowledge of how well your Kindergarteners will listen. You will not grade on their knowledge of what they have learned until the end of the school year. You will help them each week learn something new on the iPad or the computer. You would have something like a quiz to test if they are understanding what is happening, for example, each individual student may show you how to use it.
Videos to help with lessons:
iPads in Kindergarten 1
iPads in Kindergarten: 2
iPads in Kindergarten 3
iPads in Kindergarten 4
iPads in Kindergarten 5
My dream is to teach Kindergarten. In the 21st century technology has taken over. Almost every school now uses some type of technology in the classroom. When entering school for the first time Kindergarteners are nervous, excited, and scared. However, the majority want to learn. I want to introduce technology while they are young, so when they get older, they have experience with iPads and computers. They should know the basics and even how to run some apps involved. Lesson plans that involve teaching new things on iPads and/or computers.
