Healthy Garden

HEALTHY GARDEN
Answer garden is a simple tool to use, because we were able to use it in class, so it was a hands on learning. So then when being able to make one, it was easy to learn how to do it and what the point of it was. But it was somewhat confusing, because it as so easy.
The only cons would be the fact that the needs for every student to have access to a computer or iPad, but with the rate of technology, it doesn't seem to be a very big problem. 

It would be nice to have this when asking the student of what somethings they want to work on, because you get the whole class to participate, without having that awkwardness of students being scared of what they should say.

Jumping & Running for ANIMOTO

Image
ANIMOTO I used Animoto to show different ways for an active lessons. This was an interesting choice on my part, because the kids needs to be active to learn these things! But they could watch and interact with the images and pictures, and then move to an area to be able to do the actions. So they learn by seeing, then they can apply what they learned from what they learned at their own pace through the slideshow video. I chose a difficult topic to use for Animoto. But I think with something science related would work very well. But having the kids learn something like jumping is kind of hard. But it works well. If I were to use this in the classroom, I would do different topics. Its good and quick! Somethings I didn't like about Animoto, were the templates. Even though they are free, I didn't like how there wasn't just a plain one to be able to create your own. Including transitions. You can eventually change them. But just having a clean slate would've been ni

NEWSLETTER Something so basic, was so difficult for me! I was excited to try and make something, because it seemed so simple. All teachers seem to do it as well, all throughout elementary school we receive newsletters to be able to be in tune with what is happening within the classroom. And they always looked so good! So I tried, but I am so grateful for templates. Because I was getting so frustrated with everything, copying and pasting pictures, creating text boxes, trying to put the document onto the blog! Which has been so frustrating for me! I know I would use newsletters throughout my classroom, because they seem to be essential to help communicate to parents, as well as help keep the students in tune with what is going on that month. The pro's of this tool, I used Word. Which gave me templates to use, but yet I am sure there are better templates on a better tool out there. But I thought I was familiar with word, but not that familiar I guess. I don't have a lot

Water Cycle

ED PUZZLE  Wow I really liked this tool! I thought it was easy, and it helped so much. You find a video, or create your own, then cut and edit it. Which then you can add questions into it. And I think this is a great tool to use, because it is something visual, and the kids can also listen to it, hear the information. Then answer the questions, while watching the video!  I have no cons for this tool, I really liked it, because it was so easy to learn how to use. And it helps different types of learners. I will definitely use this tool in the future! The one thing I couldn't seem to figure out is the "open ended" questions, and so whether or not when taking the test those answers are correct or not, I didn't figure out how to use them. Below is the Edpuzzle, created for 4th graders to learn about the water cycle. UEN STANDARDS Science Benchmark Matter on Earth cycles from one form to another. The cycling of matter on Earth requires energy. Th
