These resources support diverse learning needs by offering differentiated strategies that cater to various cognitive levels, learning styles, and interests. By leveraging these tools effectively, educators can design lessons that are engaging, inclusive, and inquiry-driven.

In EDTC class we explored emerging technologies, in this blog I shared how I would use this assessment in two grade levels. Kahoot would be beneficial once in awhile just not an ongoing thing as we may lose students interest.

I was actually just trying to share this "Tech Trends" as this was what caught my eye as I was scrolling, which made me think of the PowerPoint we created as a class which I thought was cool and it didn't take us very long as it was a rushed assignment.

Digital literacy is essential in today’s fast-paced, tech-driven world. One major trend is cloud-based collaboration, like PowerPoint, which makes teamwork easier. By embracing these tools, we are evolving the digital landscape.

Thank you for sharing this Adrian. Yes, like Ramona said some children love to get dirty and explore the goodness of science, as it is new to them and so magical. When I worked in the daycare I would try do experiments with them and they really enjoy the new learning and exploring.

I have never heard of this one before. Set groups of four students. It lists a few games that you can try on here but I like this one best where, three people sit with their backs to the board and compete to be the first to guess the word or phrase based on one student's description. Thank You.
