Sports and Activites
Something so basic, was so difficult for me! I was excited to try and make something, because it seemed so simple. All teachers seem to do it as well, all throughout elementary school we receive newsletters to be able to be in tune with what is happening within the classroom. And they always looked so good! So I tried, but I am so grateful for templates. Because I was getting so frustrated with everything, copying and pasting pictures, creating text boxes, trying to put the document onto the blog! Which has been so frustrating for me!
I know I would use newsletters throughout my classroom, because they seem to be essential to help communicate to parents, as well as help keep the students in tune with what is going on that month. The pro's of this tool, I used Word. Which gave me templates to use, but yet I am sure there are better templates on a better tool out there. But I thought I was familiar with word, but not that familiar I guess.
I don't have a lot of cons of this tool, except for the fact that I couldn't figure out a lot of copy and past items. And even something simple as putting the PDF onto this blog is something I couldn't figure out.
I will use newsletters, its just the matter of really mastering the tool, and that will come with practice and time. I think it will come with a lot of use of the tool, trying to figure out what works best and what ways I can best create.
