Fabulous Friday Technology Tip(F2T2)- Volume 2:31st edition


Congratulations!!  AnotherChilly Spring Friday is here!!!!!
Good morning!  
This is the “31st edition" of the Fabulous Friday Technology Tip (F2 T2) that shares technology tools and resources that can be integrated into your daily lessons, unit plans and classroom centers. The next few weeks of (F2 T2) will contain one resource and one tip/solution/idea for effectively integrating computers into your class.
  •  The resource for today is The Teachers Guide(http://www.theteachersguide.com/interactivesites.html). This website takes a look at Interactive Sites, lesson plans and Web 2.0 tools. There are lesson plans and activities for reading, language arts, math, science, social studies, music and art! Check it out!
  • The today’s idea/solution answers the following question- 

"How can we get all students through a one-computer center or mini lab (10-15 computers)?-Part 1
  • Student of the day demonstrates a computer program on Internet site to the entire class. 
  • Make a center with a schedule that all students rotate through.
  • Make it a cooperative learning activity. 
  • Schedule the time, so each student knows there time for the week, i.e. Maria's time is Tuesday from 10:20-10:40, Joseph's time is from 10:40-11:00, etc.
  • When one student and/or group finishes, they tell the next group what to do. In this manner the teacher doesn't have to explain as      much. 
  • Create efficient groups - have at least one student who can read the material, have one student who is a confident technology user, etc. 
  • Peer tutoring 
  • Learn - Teach - Learn - follow a process where the first group learns from the teacher, they in turn teach the next group, they learn and teach the next group until everyone has learned the new task. We know that we learn things better when we have to teach, so make students part of this process.
