Reflection and Implementation of TIE Lesson Plan

Wow! I never thought that I could implement a VoiceThread with Kindergarten but I did! First of all, the whole concept went really well. The students had a reference paper since their "What do you want to be when you grow up?" worksheets had already been completed during guided practice. I simply pulled them one by one from centers and asked them to share the information on their worksheets in the VoiceThread. I didn't have any trouble getting them to speak, in fact, they were really excited to be called once they found out what we were doing. In the future, I would definitely use it more often so that they are familiar with logging in and out, choosing a user, and then speaking/drawing on their own. The only problem I had was that their voice doesn't sound loud enough. However, if you put headphones on, you can hear it clearly. So, be sure to do that if you are watching the VoiceThread. Overall, this was a really great experience and I'll definitely try it again.
Enjoy!
