    purchase pre-made iboard lessons in ela, math, science that are aligned to state and core standards. great place to start for teachers who aren't ready to create their own Notebook lessons.

    Would they work on Eno boards in the middle school?
  • Joe Colombo on 09 May 12
     
    Yes Ellen - once a ActivInspire - a new, but free software is installed on teacher laptops this summer. It is fully compatible with the Eno boards in the middle school.

    For $258 we could get 21 issues of National Geographic Explorer for the ipad (for each of our 20 ipads in the smith cart) - with 7 K-1 issues, 7 2-3 issues and 7 4-6 issues (also can be used for higher readers in 2-3). Much more cost effective then ordering paper copies, and a great way to make digital literature available in all K-5 classrooms. App is very interactive and connections to grade level science content occur often. http://magma.nationalgeographic.com/ngexplorer/pioneer/

    I like that idea. I was looking into magazines for 1st grade but like that this is interactive. Would it have to be split from team budgets?
  • Terry Green on 25 Jun 12
     
    Looks good, kids would really love it. I would be willing to help pay the costs with some of my budget. Could use the content to address the ELA common core science standards.

    very cool new storytelling app. easy to use. easy to insert images, text, video. can search Google image from within the app. can UPDATE the story and keep the orignal url (huge!). drawback is that sharing via url (and facebook and twitter) are the only options - no epub, pdf, etc.

    This looks like a really cool app to explore. You can pull up a student's work for parent-teacher conferences, assessment, or use as exemplars. How it works: With your smartphone or ipad, you can take a photo and tag it before you upload it and organize.

    Downloaded - I'll be giving it a try - I have used a notebook creating app for a similar purpose, but this seems to be designed for what I have been forcing the other app to do. I wish you could add voice recordings as I like to do running records, and fluency analysis after I take a picture of a page a student is reading.
  • Patricia McGonagle on 24 Jul 12
     
    Take a picture with our app, and it's online in seconds Three Ring is a website that allows you to securely upload photos of student work. With Three Ring, you can sort by class, student, or custom tag to easily find the artifact you're looking for.
  • Mark McDonough on 02 Aug 12
     
    joe- it looks you CAN add your own audio recording to each piece of student work. i could not find, however, any reference to an ability to upload files. so it looks like the only way to add student work it to take a picture of it.

    This is a new concept for a search engine that combines a concept map, web sites, images, videos and more in an easy to use format that you can adjust for grade level. I am going to try using it with 2nd grade when we do our continents project.

shared by Mark McDonough on 02 Sep 12 - No Cached
  • When I first started blogging, I thought the posts would be the primary focus of the blog. I quickly realized that the comment section was where the blog came to life.
  • Many parents work but would love to volunteer in some way. Last year, I asked parents to become “virtual volunteers” for our blogs. A virtual volunteer is a person who supports the blog by commenting back to students. This type of interaction helps strengthen the home-school connection and makes the comment sections more engaging.
  • With classroom time at a premium, I look for meaningful ways to integrate curriculum; the blog has been the perfect venue. When my class read “The Great Kapok Tree” by Lynne Cherry for language arts, the students followed up their reading by researching a rain forest animal that was mentioned in the story. Each student composed a comment for the blog from the point of view of that animal.
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • During our biography unit, I had each student select a famous person to study. Students submitted a creative comment pretending they were that person. George Washington got a comment from Queen Elizabeth I, Mozart and Tchaikovsky were chatting; the blog comments truly brought these historic people to life!
  • Of all the riches that blogging has brought to my class, the relationships we’ve built with other classrooms around the world have been the most rewarding.

    good, quick overview of how a 3rd grade teacher uses blogging. includes specific examples.

    Nice list Mark...I wanted to try the Storylines app at morning meeting but it limits the ipad passing to 9 people. Guess I could do two. I'll let you know how it goes.

    I got Storypatch. It looks pretty good and offers a lot of options for the kids to make stories. I am going to try it out with a few students and see how it goes.

    Has anyone seen this? Interesting, leveled books using F+P, DRA etc, running records, teacher has the ability to assign books to the class and manage some data. They also have books available for the Ipad. Is it something we should look in to?

    I used this for a week during Teacher Appreciation when it was free. It's pretty cool. So many levelled books
  • Joe Colombo on 19 Jan 12
     
    I used it in Newton with students on IEPS for reading....I found it particularly helpful for fluency as it models the reading for kids. The books are also pretty high interest as far as online readers go. The price is also not awful considering what other like programs go for.
