Useful Skills Learned in the Last Week

The assignment we did the last week took a while and included many skills that I had never done before, and some I did not even know were possible. One thing that I found particularly useful and helpful was creating a calendar. This will be very useful in a future class so that all of the students can know where to look to make sure they have all of their assignments done and are prepared for certain activities. This is also a great way to incorporate students' parents in the classroom because then they can be aware of what is going on and can help make sure their children stay on top of their work. I thought it was great that we were able to customize the calendar based on one specific day, weekly, and/or monthly. Having all this electronically makes it so as a teacher, I can create the calendar quickly, but also, if changes needed to be made, everyone will be aware of them. Creating a calendar using technology provides for a clear and efficient way to organize a class, as well as keep everyone updated and aware of what is going on in the classroom. It seemed so difficult before, but now I see how helpful it is because it is actually quite simple to create a calendar.
