week 3 PLE....TPAK and storyboard

1. I understand TPACK to be the combination of pedegogical, content and technology knowledge. I think it is important for a teacher to understand this concept as it is important to know the right learning tool to use to teach the correct content and teaching that content through various types of technology. I think it helps teachers relate more to student what is being taught and it helps students relate more to their work, if the right learning environment is created through using technology in creative ways.

2.For our digital story project, the standards we have chosen are: Standard 1 ,Objective 2 develop language through viewing media and presenting and Standard 4, Objective 1 demonstrate an understanding of the relationship between letters and sounds. Both standards are for Kindergarten. Our digital story will help teach this content because it will go through all the letters of the alphabet and teach students what they sound like through oral language. The story will be drawn pictures of the alphabet letters and animals that start with that letter. The pictures will also help students develop and association with letters and animals.
