Navigating Nonfiction~Volcanoes | Mustang Readers - 0 views

  •  
    An example of using ShowMe App on iPad with Title I for intervention to preview non-fiction text. This is Shelly's and my role playing to show how it could work... then Shelly was able to try with the students. The kids love it and were really paying attention. How could you use this with your class, RTI, or WTS groups?

iLearn Technology » Blog Archive » BBC Bitesize: Converting fractions into de... - 0 views

  • What it is: BBC Bitesize consistently has wonderful games and activities for the classroom.  The Converting Fractions into Decimals activity isn’t one I have come across in the past, but it is a winner none the less.  This is a great place for students to gain some practice with fraction to decimal conversion.  The activity is set up like a secret mission.  Students get their briefing on the mission (including a short description of how the conversion is performed) and must solve a series of problems to unlock secret doors and compartments.

    Tons of great resources on this site. They are fabulous to use on a SmartBoard, but it's not necessary to have a SmartBoard.

iLearn Technology » Blog Archive » Super Math World - 0 views

  • Super Math World isn’t a totally free site but it does have a LOT of free content that kids can access. 
  • Free topics include: adding, measures, number patterns, percentages, place value, area, estimating, fractions, negative numbers, set theory, venn diagrams, and series.  The kids will enjoy the arcade-like practice area.
  • How to integrate Super Math World into the classroom:  Super Math World makes a great computer center activity during math.  The games are quick-enough that students can filter through classroom computers for their turn over a few periods.  The games would also make fun whole-class interactive whiteboard games.  These are intended to be one player, so you can split your students into teams and have them take turns at the board.

Writing Across the Curriculum - 2 views

  •  
    Fabulous resource for writing across the curriculum. Different types of writing for different content areas with concrete examples, templates, graphic organizers. It's also a great way to show how 3R informational text has different format and how to read it for comprehension.

Mr. Salsich's Class - Grinding Cornmeal - 0 views

  •  
    If your curriculum includes Native American culture, this would be a relevant post to get students discussing prior knowledge, and writing their thoughts down as comments (or have them dictate what to write and do a whole group comment by modeling for them how to collect their ideas and form a comment/friendly letter).
