I actually want to teach many different grades, but my first choice would be Kindergarten. Some ways that I could use word processing in the classroom is for one, using as my own preparation and use. I can use it to prepare for my lessons and also collaborate with other teachers to help me in my own teaching.
Also I can start to introduce my students to writing on the computer and get them motivated to write at an early age. I wouldn't start this until way later in the year because they are just beginning to understand works and reading and wouldn't know how to write anything.
Also I plan on teaching some older classes as well and this would be a good resource to use in class to help get the students writing and expose them to skills that will help them later in their educational career. They can learn to type and to write and then also help each other and learn about what makes good writing reading each other's work and editing them. I think this could be a wonderful tool to use in a classroom to help motivate and encourage students to write and also to help each other and learn skills like sentence fluency.
