Reflection: I think it would be a good idea to create a class website if you were working with younger children. The teacher could
be the admin, everything that the students would add would be monitored that way. Summaries of books could earn class
points and be really interesting for not only students, but parents to look at as well. The class could earn points at a whole to

earn a movie or other reward. There could also be points at tables and the more they team up and work together, the more
points they will earn. For young children, I think that pictures can be a powerful technology. Classes can have a class camera and
they can all be aware of when they are taking the weather picture.
