Where do I begin? Every time I take a new class I find myself overflowing with mixed emotions. I am always a bit excited and overwhelmed at the same time. My mind seems to race away full speed, ready to start everything at one time. I love all the new ideas and the possibilities they promise. I compose lengthy lists of the ideas I hope to use to transform my classroom. Usually, the classes I talk are grade specific or at the very least geared towards a primary classroom. I am a bit puzzled as to how to incorporate blogs, wikis and more into my room. I'm thinking that it would be a great idea to develop videos of the math games we use in second grade. Then the parents could access the instructions online, to reinforce them at home. This should be an interesting and enjoyable adventure.
