I am a second-grade teacher looking for new innovative ideas for my classroom.

Excited to begin my wiki lesson on area. This will be a great way to provide enrichment for my second graders who are ready for more of a challenge! #6710App5

@KT17639570 It's amazing what students can accomplish when given the opportunity. Letting go is difficult, but so rewarding when you see the end result. #6710DB2

@MNest125 A shift in mindset is so important. Many think that students are too young to handle technology in the classroom, but in reality, some are just too set in their ways to begin to explore new opportunities. #6710DB2

Teacher mindsets need to change in regards to fearing the use of technology with elementary students. Without a Growth Mindset, we will limit the ability of our students' understanding and responsibility that comes along with using Web 2.0 tools as they get older. #6710DB2

A big shift I am working on is using technology not only as a tool for individual differentiation, but a way for students to collaborate on assignments. #6710DB2

@integratingtech I have been so consumed by wondering what the education setting will look like as a whole in the fall, that I didn't stop to think about all the kids that need a hug that first day of school and throughout the year. I can't imagine the uneasy feelings these little ones will have.

Looking forward to finding ways to use Twitter in my classroom! I think I will begin by using it as a communication tool with students and parents. #EDUC6710
