Teachers will leave with a comprehensive list of best practices and best educational sites that are free on the web. All materials will be hosted on a website that will be available beyond the Learning Circle. In this three day session, we will cover the following topics: 1) Writing, Listening & Speaking Web Tools (1/27/15) - Learn and practice the basics and beyond as we cover workflow, productivity and shortcuts. Explore the best of the web when it comes toWriting, Listening & Speaking for your students. 2) Tools to promote standards mathematical proactice (2/03/15)–Geared towards using tools that promote the Standards Mathematical Practice. Specifically ways for students to show conceptual understanding or presentation of learning in Standards 2-5. 3) Early Learning iOS Apps (3/10/15) – Younger children plus screens has always been looked upon as a detrimental combination. Some of the thinking has been that young developing minds cannot distinguish real from what's represented on the screens well enough, leading to developmental issues down the track. There is also the obvious concerns of eye strain, over stimulation and the lack of physical activity that sitting and watching engenders. But as new interactive screens in the form of iPads have entered many classrooms & homes, the conventional wisdom around some of these has begun to change. Because a good iPad app requires active choices and creativity by young users, a number of early elementary students world-wide have begun using them, and new research is being undertaken into how they differ from the passive TV watching that previous studies were most concerned with. This collection of resources is meant to provide a window into this developing world to give some background and understanding as you begin exploring the apps in areas of reading, letters and sounds, shapes, songs and educational games!
