Volunteer Schools

1) I have spend 41/2 hrs volunteering at the schools, but I also have two more hours next week which will make a total of 61/2 hrs of volunteering.
2) It was very interesting to see all of the different students tech skills.  There were some students whose skills were way more superior than mine.  Their was this boy who took thousands of still pictures, and put them all together to make a movie that had the characters moving and everything.  The first school that I volunteered at I noticed the students did not have much motivation, but then the teacher was kind of boring.  The school school I was at the students were fully engaged the whole time.  They were excited, and they were making some awesome movies.
3) I learned that I need to improve my tech skills.  I have always been fine at doing things for myself, but trying to help the students was a little difficult.  The first school I went to the teacher actually did not know how to do garage band, so I taught the class how to use garage band.  It was fun to actually teach the kids, and it made me realize you really have to know your skills in order to teach them to someone else.
4) I would like to start blogging at least once a week.  I love to coupon, and people are always asking me how I do it.  I feel like if I start a blog explaining everything that it would be very beneficial to my friends and family.
I would also like to this summer create some podcasts that will correspond with my lessons.  I would like to have this done before I start student teaching, so that I do not have to worry about making them while I am student teaching.
