More Field

This past week has gone by so fast.  I have learned a lot from field and there is a lot more that I want to learn.  Vineyard has Apple computers in there computer labs, the library, and the teacher each have an Apple laptop.  The students use these computers to take math tests.  Their scores are recorded and the teacher can access the whole classes scores at see what progress they have made and who needs more improvement.  Our cooperating teacher also has a smart board that she uses every week.  Yesterday we watched a live broadcast from Plimoth Plantation in Massachusetts.  It was cool to see how technology is used in schools and how I will be able to use it.  Today we also began to teach our teacher about Digital Stories.  She likes the idea of using them to strengthen a unit or lesson.
