Innovative Ideas

Need ideas on being Innovative or using new technology?

I always say, "Just try one thing".  

Pat yourself on the back if you've tried one of these already or some other type of new technology adventure for this year!!!

  • Post a question of the week on your class blog (kidsblog.org, Blogger.com)
  • Have a class twitter acct.-post a tweet about the day’s learning or updates for parents
  •  Make a parody of a hit song (Some of you have done this.."All about the....")
  • Create an infographic (easel.ly is my favorite)
  •  Go paperless for a day
  •  Create your own class hashtag (e.g. #rebeltechtips , #LeMondsjcesjags)
  • Integrate Selfies into your curriculum (I sent a selfie project idea at the start of the yr.)
  • AppSmash Something (pic collage + thinglink, camera + tellagami)
  • Make part of your classroom “Augmented” (Aurasma is my favorite)
  • Make a class book (Mixbook, Shutterfly, BookCreator, iBook Author)  

Here is a neat article on being innovative and being a 21st century teacher.  Let me know if you need help integrating technology or using any of these ideas.
