News flash!!

Today I found out the best news............................................................................

I found out that I get my very own DOCUMENT CAMERA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ahhhhhhhhhh! I am so frickin' excited.  I cant wait.  They just arrived so it will take a few days to get them ready, but still I can be patient for a few days!

Let me make this a little clearer for you.  When I interviewed for this position I asked about what technology they had in the classrooms.  They said they only had 1 computer and 1 projector per room.  I know at least there was that, but I was hoping for more.  ThEN I get here and here this wonderful news.

I am stoked, like really stoked.

Like I cant wait.

I am so blessed to be in my grade level! Only Grades 4, 5, and 6 are getting these things.  I just barely made the cut  ;)  YAY!!!!!!!!

p.s. I have been googling for quite some time to find/remember the brand that it is and I finally found it.  It is an AVerVision.  Im not certian that this is the actual camera I am getting but I just wanted a picture!!  yay.

I am so excited.  Do you have a document camera in your room?  How do you use it?  What tips can you give me if you do?

  1. I use mine for everything!!! I model how to do anything and everything under it! My fav is showing them different ways to solve math problems and showing different elements of writing in my own writer's notebook :o) You are going to have so much fun!!

    The only bad thing is I often have to rewrite some lessons on chart paper to show 'others' what we're learning.

    1. I definitely was planning on using it often for math, but I had not thought about using it for writing and writing notebooks! Thanks so much for the idea and the encouragement.
