What a strange week. After two snow days, school reconvened today. With the option to celebrate Valentine's Day today or tomorrow, some students ended the day in a festive and sugary way! I took the opportunity to squeeze as much academics in today, as tomorrow is the last day of the week for students. A teacher in-service on Friday and President's Day on Monday leaves us with little time to squeeze in the important stuff. However, I did have time to incorporate a new lesson nouns and verbs. Students supplied a short list of nouns and verbs, which I entered into the Notebook software for the SMARTBoard. The students composed sentences using the nouns and verbs (which are movable on the SMARTBoard) while supplying other words with the SMARTBOARD markers. It was a short lesson, which incorporated spelling, grammar, punctuation, capitalization and handwriting.
Tomorrow, we will party:)
Melissa I know that Smartboard have made a teacher’s job a lot easier and more interactive but have you heard of the touch screen table? http://smarttech.com/table
