Example 1 - email
Sorry I missed class on 10/30/ I was sick and am still not feeling well … Sorry for the incontinence, see you in class on Thursday!!!
Example 2 – journal
Using templetes will be very useful when i become a teacher. Since i want to be a kindergarden teacher i will make happy notes and sad notes. Each child will recieve one of the two at the end of the week. This will let their parents know how they behaved that week during school. Since i learned how to make a templete, I can make a template for each of these, and just fill names in at the end of each week. This will also be useful in creating permission slips, and notes home.

Example 1 – Good Journal Entry
Journal Entry 1
Although this semester has just begun, I am very interested in the learning outcomes of this course. The skills that we will acquire will help us as prospective teachers. When we begin our career in an educational setting, we will be faced with many different forms of technology that will require us to apply the knowledge that we received in order to accomplish a task. Aside from the fact that this course will help us in an educational setting, it will also benefit us in our other academic courses that we are currently taking. For example, project one and two that we have already completed would be a helpful tool to use in the aspect of planning an event or having to produce a professional letter to send to a business in order to receive funding for a club or organization. Therefore, this class will not only benefit us in the future but during the course of this year.
