Blog 3- google slides

-

 My 3rd technology I chose comes from RQ2 PPT in the Microsoft versus Google slide. I am going to talk about Google slides. Google slides is a presentation sharing platform that allows teachers to create slideshows to present information or even review previously learned information. Google Slides can help captivate the attention of the audience by the various themes, fonts and animations. This can make information sharing a little more fun to the students! In google slides, you can input pictures, videos, and even links to other websites. You can also have your students create their own slideshows for presentations or even in group projects. Students can even work on a slideshow together at the same time from wherever they are at! Here is the link to google slides : https://www.google.com/slides/about/ This platform is easy to use and free! I think this is going to be a very useful tool when teaching children! I would connect this to the seven events framework with presenting the content.

    Hi Maddi,
    I love google slides! It is so easy to use! It works so nice for groups projects so we can all work at the same time, and no one is waiting on one another to get their part of the project done. It is so simple to use!

Blog 5- Go Noodle

 Go Noodle is the next technology I am going to cover! This one can be found in Dr. Wang's PPT on the informational slide. Go Noodle is a website that provides fun and educational videos for kids. These videos are created to help kids stay active, learn new things, and have fun at the same time! The videos on Go Noodle cover a wide range of topics, from math and science to music and dance, and are suitable for students of all ages. This website is free to use and can even be used to aid in lesson planning or as supplementary materials in your own lesson plans. I think that this website is very easy to use and would be great for all ages. I think this could be not only used for learning but for incorporating brain breaks into the classroom. I could see myself using this tool in my future classroom. We recently discussed the SAMR framework. I think this could easily fit into the substitution category. I think that Go Noodle can be a substitute for Google in a way. When looking for ed

Blog 10- Star Fall

 For my next post, I will be talking about Starfall. Star Fall is an engaging and fun website with many games for children to play to practice different skills used in school. The skills range from math to reading. Starfall also has a variety of fun games relating to the seasons and Special days! I remember using Starfall when I was in elementary school, however, they have kept up to date on their program! Personally, I can see myself using this in my future classroom especially because it is easy to set up and use! This website does not even require accounts for the children or the teachers. I also find this tool to be versatile in the subjects it covers and the grades it caters to. I think Starfall would be a great technology to incorporate into the LAT lesson plan Framework. This could be a fun and engaging website to use to reinforce what is being taught in class! https://www.starfall.com/h/index-kindergarten.php?mg=k

Blog 11- Cool Math Games

 The next technology I want to talk about is cool math games. Cool Math Games is a website featuring games and puzzles for kids and teenagers. The games are designed to be educational and fun and cover a range of topics including math, logic, strategy, and more. I think that this is a very easy tool to use as it does not require any sort of account to use, however, there are games that some teachers might not see as educational. It is up to the students and the teacher to use this tool responsibly. I think Cool Math Ganes would be good for higher elementary school students. I think that this would be great for use in the TPACK framework when discussing technological knowledge in a lesson plan!  https://www.coolmathgames.com/1-number-games
