picocrickets

I have learned a lot of information by using the picocrickets. I have learned that I still have a long way on learning how to incorporate and use technology in my classroom someday. The thing I enjoyed most about the picocrickets was creating a ''man'' and being able to decorate it. I liked that our class could be creative and come up with anything that they want to design. I did become very frustrated when it came time to turn to the computers. Our group struggled with making the software work, which didn't help the level of frustration.

If I had the option to use the picocrickets in my classroom in the near future, I would have to receive training. I would not feel comfortable going into a classroom and introducing this technology to young children. I feel as though they would have to many questions that I wouldn't be able to answer. So, if I was trained in using the picocrickets, I'm sure I would have different feelings towards them.
