Week #7 Thing #16

I never knew there were such awesome instructional video feeds on Youtube! In my classroom I teach my kids the sign language symbols for all of the letters. I do this for two specific reasons, kinestetic learning application, and classroom management. This little video is fantastic, and shows my struggling students that if this little pumpkin can do it, they most certainly can!

Week #6 Thing #15

I had a "stolen" idea that I heard about another Kindergarten teacher exploring! I thought it was great and wanted to see if it enhanced the learning of my students! My concept is "Blends all Around Us". I want students to be able to explore our school and find real world examples of blends all around them! When I say blends I am not thinking smoothie but (ST, SP, FL, PL ect.) During our lunch break I was very excited to see how easy it was to find and capture blends. It was really fun too! I think that this will be a project that, with intense teacher guidance may excite and engage my kiddos.

Week #6 thing # 14

I like voice thread! I have so many ideas that will enhance my students learning in terms of collaboration, book knowledge, and story elements! What a cool tool! Here is a voice thread that I created to teach my students about what they can do when they get a boo boo
What a fun tool for teaching! I even have a great youtube video feed in of a girl putting on a band aid!
