Module 5: Flipchart of Addition


Module 5: Flipchart of Addition

Promethean has many varieties of resources for teachers to use and very friendly use for the students to learn. There is so many flipchart to select, however, I chose addition and it has very colorful and fun activity for the kids. Properties of Addition is the one that I chose because it looks fun to learn for the students. It require for you to have the right kind of software before you can download any flipchart you want. The amazing part about it is free to download. ActiveInsipre is great hardware to use. There is hardware to use and very easy to use for the class.

Using technology on problem solving through flipchart is one of the best ability to learn in the classroom. It gives teacher to see what the students’ comprehension. Teacher could show what to do to all the students. Promethean Planet has so many activities and in my own opinion it is important to involve students at the same time to learn. Flipchart is remarkable for technology integration. Not only it is great for integration with students, individual activities, and many more but also for the teachers to create their own flipchart to match the need for the classroom.  Promethean Planet provides a great software support tools. If teachers have any question or concern, there are always support tools to find what they want. I am so glad to learn about flipchart because I’ll be using this a lot in my classroom.

Module Four!


Wiki
Wiki is a site where teacher could use in the classroom with students’ involve. It is useful for the teacher to put students in a group and they can discuss through Wikispaces.

Widget #1
http://whos.amung.us/ is a great widget. Who’s among us is showing us who visit me and where they are. I think it is great for students to create their own blog and see how many people have read and where they come from.

Widget #2
http://www.educationatlas.com/dict/free-online-dictionary.html is a great widget. It is helpful when students do not know what the word means. This widget is giving the students a quick access to their necessary. It has both of dictionary and thesaurus tool which it also great.

Web-based lesson
I chose electronic field trip. It is fills classroom screen with visual images of educational value. It helped when teacher wanted to show the students the visual of the animals, states, or many things. It is great for visual aid students. It helped students to experience the realistic of the world and what teacher is trying to show.
