When it comes to the ELA standards, the one that I feel that I am most prepared to teach is the Producing Tech Standards. I feel that I know how to do much of what falls within the Producing Tech Standards. I also enjoy making things like PowerPoints and things similar to it, because I like to be the one in control. I do not feel as prepared to teach Consuming Tech Standards because I've never been good with what falls within that category. I hope to be able to improve this now while taking education classes so that in the future when I do teach it I feel comfortable and prepared.

When I become a teacher I would like to teach between the 1st grade to 3rd grade age. Some of the technology that I would like to use with them are audios, videos, and the Internet. I would incorporate audio when it comes to reading. The audio can help them listen and read along so that they can learn to better read. I would use informative videos in my lessons to allow the visual learners to understand better. I would use learning websites on the Internet that will help the students learn while also having fun. These are all very important to help students learn. When it comes to digital citizenship I will teach my students about how the Internet can communicate you to others and how you must always be respectful.

After creating my newsletter I learned many things. Before I felt that I knew how to use Word very well, but after making the newsletter I learned much more. I learned how to change the background of the picture to match the background of the screen, which I feel is a good aspect. I feel that my newsletter is pretty good. I felt like I was actually a teacher when creating it, which I really liked. After doing this assignment I feel like I am prepared to make newsletters for my class, but that I definitely should give myself time to create it.
