Today, we went over to look at the Smart Board in another classroom of the EB. I think the Smart Board would be a great investment for any classroom! The more students can interact with the lesson, the more they will remember what is being taught.
In addition to the Smart Board, we had the opportunity to look and "play" with other fun technological devices to use for the classroom. I really think the Flip Phone would be a great investment to a classroom. Students could capture themselves and classmates on video with projects, presentations, and assignments at the beginning of the year and compare later in the year with future projects. I also think the Digital Overhead ("Elmo") would be an amazing classroom device to have! There are so many ways this tool could be used in comparison to a standard, overhead projector. There are so many ways to use these fun, exciting tools to bring classroom lessons to life and enhance teaching opportunities!
I hope you will have some of these tools at your disposal when you go into the classroom.
