How
It Will Be
This school year, 2001-2002,
Middle School Kidz will include links to web pages of teachers and
schools around our country
and the world. Middle School Kidz will be a fully interactive web
site. Beginning with my colleague, Ms.
Linda Deasy who teams with me in our school, these web pages will
reflect the curriculum and the interests of the teachers portrayed. Ms.
Deasy teaches Math, Science and Reading. I teach English Language Arts,
Social Studies and Reading to the same group of 55 students.
Here
at Edmund W. Miles Middle School in Amityville, New York, our sixth
grade students change classes and are partially departmentalized. They
attend physical education on a full year schedule. Music, technology,
health and home and career education classes are offered on a rotating
10 week quarterly schedule.
What
We Will Do
This year,
I'd like teachers and schools to submit their URL's to me so I could link their
pages to Middleschoolkidz.com. I'd like to know what other middle
schools are doing around the country and around the world. I'd like to
know how your students:
-
learn
how they "learn best"
-
individualize
their learning experience
-
receive
their assignments
-
plan
and organize their assignments using technology tools (
-
find,
research, use, and assess "quality" resources
-
work
cooperatively in teams
-
complete
their assignments using technology tools (MS Office, other software,
browsers, search engines, etc.)
-
submit
assignments via e-mail and other digital means
-
receive
feedback from the teacher and other classmates via e-mail and
threaded discussions
-
document
and exhibit their learning experiences
-
and
have a lot of FUN learning!!!!!!!
