Technically Teaching (Lynn's Blog)

This blog will address my thoughts about using technology with elementary students. Many elementary teachers are apprehensive to incorporate technology into the curriculum. My goal is to be an instrument of change in that area and to be an encouragement to my fellow Educators as they discover the many benefits of using technology in their classrooms.

Are you looking for a great FREE software download? Tuxpaint is a free drawing program, and my kids love it!

It has a lot of tools and fun effects that kids can use to create fantastic artwork! Tuxpaint even has great sound effects - try it, I'm sure you will enjoy it!

Lynn, I agree 100% that kids love it, but so do teachers. It has been the best tool for me to quickly make screens to insert into my powerpoints. Rather than searching all over for clipart I can quickly draw or stamp the image I need and then insert it into the teaching powerpoint.Most recently... the stamp images to make addition "picture" problems to get kids going on that skill! So glad you found this tool for us...it's amazing how many ways we have used it!
