Techonolgy Integration

I think that integrating technology into the classroom is a great idea. Before long, classes will no longer be offered in a classroom but on the computer. There are always new types of technolgy that is being developed. I use technology in my classroom for many different things. I have used it for History lessons and Phonics lessons. I will use in the second semester for Science lessons.
 
 
I have a lot of computer experience. I think that I am very experienced when it comes to technology. I have taken five computer classes while I have been at USA. I took three computer classes in high school. I really enjoy working with computers.
