Technology in the Kindy Classroom
May 10, 2008 | | 1 Comment
For prac this semester i have a kindergarten class, and instead of using a whiteboard, they use a smartboard. I have found this use of technology really interesting, and have used it quite a bit for my lessons. The kids love using it and are completely engaged when it is in use. It is such a great tool for getting children involved in the lessons. With its interactive nature, it creates a ‘hands-on’ environment for learning, which is very effective. The classroom teacher often uses the smartboard during story time. There are a large number of online stories to choose from and the children absolutely love them. Before prac, i don’t think i would have thought of technology such as a smartboard being of any use in a kindergarten classroom, but i can now see the profound impact it has on their engagement and learning.
