Poetry Anthology

My latest idea for a student project involves a 4th grade unit on Poetry. Each year the teacher and I guide students in a technology integrated poetry anothology. I'm thinking of changing the anthology focus a little to involve this blog, digital pictures and a wiki. I was also thinking of having students create a poetry anthology website. I'm not sure just yet how this will play out in the classroom, but I am meeting with the teacher today, so hopefully she'll love the idea as much as I do!

Welcome!

I hope to use this as a place to share various things… student work, teacher work, my own technological and/or educational wonderings, and things that inspire me.
A little bit about me… I am an Educational Technology Specialist at the John D. Runkle School in Brookline, Massachusetts.   One of my yearly goals has been to make more of my students’ work public, so I began doing so on the Runkle Technology wiki.  My thinking for using a wiki to share student work is so my teachers can also post any student work on the same wiki, eventually.  It’s all a work in progress, but I have posted some work from this year.  I hope to do the same on this blog.
