Almost Finished!

Well, I made it through STEP training!! I learned a lot and hope to incorporate more technology in the classroom next year. One thing that has consistently struck me is the SIGNIFICANT increase in my students' attention to task especially when using ELMO and Photo Story! They really enjoy seeing things and/or themselves projected on the screen as well as hearing their voices and those of their classmates on the digital stories and on podcasting. For the population we teach (early childhood special education), any strategy that increases attention to task is a strategy that must be used.
