iLearn Technology » Blog Archive » Scholastic's Listen and Read: Free non-fic... - 0 views

  • Listen and Read has fantastic online reading activities for early learners.  There are 54 nonfiction read-along books that include words, images and sound.  You can sort books by subject including: Community, American History, Animals, Civics and Government, Environmental Studies, Plants and Flowers, Science and Social Studies.  You can also sort books by level (A or B). How to integrate Listen and Read into your curriculum: Non-fiction can be hard to read in the early years.  It often includes unfamiliar words and vocabulary and concepts that students don’t have a lot of prior knowledge of.  Scholastic’s Listen and Read is fantastic because it helps students navigate their way through non-fiction with the support of a read-aloud, sounds and images.  These interactive books help students better comprehend content because they aren’t focused on the words they are stumbling through.  At the end of the book students can click on the unfamiliar new vocabulary to hear the word said again.  This follow-up exposure reinforces word recognition, vocabulary and ideas.

debrennersmith: Writing and Reading Lessons - 0 views

  •  
    Great blog to follow for Kinder-2nd teachers esp for ELA "Teach the writer, not the writing. Teach the reader, not the reading. We have conversations with our students about their reading and writing to teach the child." "Deb is a literacy consultant and an author. She post writing lessons and reading lessons frequently."

    Here's a list of individual student bloggers, grades 6-8. Their posts are about digital citizenship & science. I'm sure they would love students to comment on their blogs.
  •  
    If you are into science, and grades 3-6th, this is a place to allow your students to comment to other students. Always review safety and netiquette first, then model making some class comments before having them work on comments as partners.

Making Educational Blogging Work for You | Integrating Technology in the Primary Classroom - 0 views

  • I used to think blogging was an add-on. I didn’t realise that it can be seamlessly integrated into the classroom literacy program. I used to feel guilty about taking time away from my reading and writing curriculum. It was a light bulb moment for me when I realised that blogging is literacy; and an authentic and important style of literacy too. Now a day without blogging as part of my literacy block would be hard to imagine.

    Fabulous post by Kathleen Morris (now 4th grade teacher, but previously 2nd grade teacher) about educational blogging.

How to Teach Internet Safety to Younger Elementary Students | Edutopia - 0 views

  • There are three considerations when addressing Internet safety with these students. First, the transfer of handling strangers in "real life" to those in virtual environments is not automatic. It needs to be taught. Second, while most "Stranger Danger" programs teach that strangers are scary, mean and want to hurt or abduct children, this contradicts the way collaboration occurs between strangers online. Not all strangers are dangerous. Lastly, in "real life," students can walk or run away from a potential threat. In an online environment, the danger is inside a student's home and hard to escape without the necessary skills for handling tough situations. This is a lesson that I have done with my kindergarten and first grade students to introduce the idea that strangers exist on the Internet and to discuss how we should interact with them.

  • how to add, subtract, and multiply decimals. We learned that when adding or subtracting decimals, the decimal points always need to line up. When we multiply decimals, the decimal points don’t need to line up.
  • How are adding/subtracting decimals different from multiplying decimals?* *When might you use addition, subtraction, or multiplication of decimals?*
