Day 8 2/11/10

Day eight of class was another snow day. :) So we once again did all of our assignments online. An activity I have done in my out-of-school life that has prepared me to meet a ISTE NETS-T is that I work at an after school program at Blackshere Elm. The students that attend this program rage from kindergarten to fourth grade. I have to comply with students ages 5-11, so I have to change my methods for each grade that I help. The standard that this activity meets is Standard 4B. Standard 4B states, teachers address the diverse needs of all learners by using learner-centered strategies providing equitable access to appropriate digital tools and resources. I can explain something to a fourth grader one way, but I have to remember that a kindergartener might not understand, so I have to constantly changing teaching strategies.
