Kidspiration Links: Reflection I found the Kidspiration product more time-consuming than I expected. The lack of flexibility within the programs for younger children made this more difficult to create from a teacher standpoint. However, once completed they were very child-friendly. The hardest part was realizing that only one previous task could be "undone" if it was not what you were expecting it to look like. Now that it is finished, the Animal Grouping game will be a great way to test the children's knowledge of their underwater animal categories. The easiest part was deciding what I wanted to do and deciding on the learning tool of my choice. I decided to continue with the Ocean Habitat theme and chose the "Grouper" tool for the finished product. The concept map was much easier and will be a great asset for me to use in the classroom for every subject. I feel the students can use this in their writing and to help them expand upon any topic. This can also be used by the children to share their interests and hobbies, therefore allowing each child to become better acquainted. I feel both of these can be valuable assets in the classroom, especially as they are easy for the children to use. Graphic Links: |
