Integrating Technology--More Than Just Having Computers

1.) Have the class look at an online weather forcast. This is a great way to integrate technology into a class's everyday routine without stretching too far.  Looking at the weather online not only shows people the weather but makes the class familiar with using a computer.  Another way to challange students would be to show them the weather in a different language so they can make connections between languages.
2.) Use a URL in place of a quote on the board.  Instead of just writing a quote for the students to look at, write the URL so the students have to go and find the quote themselves. This will help with navigating the computer.
3.) Provide online reading comprehension practice. This will supplement what students are learning in an interactive way so they get more out of the lesson.
4.) Sign up for the science experiment of the week.  This will give the class interesting material that they can use in their classroom.  The internet is a great resource to find exciting experiments!
