PowerPoints ~ For lessons involving critical content, I go to PowerPoint for its attention-grabbing sights and sounds.
iMovie - It's still in it's infancy as I'm still learning the commands (like, "The movie was here a minute ago. Now it's totally gone! I command you to reveal yourself or the laptop gets it!!)
Exel (and now Macintosh Numbers) spreadsheets - I'm a huge data cruncher, because the assessment data will tell me WHAT each student needs to be taught.
Class Dojo - By tracking customized student behaviors, I learn HOW to teach each student. What seems to motivate him the most? When is she most productive? How long can I keep these little monsters entertained with these little monsters?
As always, this blog is dedicated to the man who made me want to be a teacher.
Thank you for these!
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome Bekki! If not for him I may never have become a teacher.
