Technology Thursday

 Oh yea!! I love technology so when I saw this Linky Party I was super excited!  This week I had my students doing research about spiders because we were reading the book Diary of a Spider.  Some of you may have already heard of this site, but I just discovered this search engine designed for students.  I like it because it limits the amount of results that students are able to see.  That means that a lot of inappropriate things are blocked.  So, next time you have a research project, try this site out.  I can't wait to see what other technology sites and apps you guys share.

 

Wordless Wednesday-October 29

       Today I am linking up with Ms. Decarbo at Sugar and Spice for Wordless Wednesday!

Lately I have been doing more and more with exit tickets.  I noticed I was beginning to use lots of paper.  I pulled out my handy dandy ActivExpressions and now my students complete their exit tickets with them.  I love how fast I can look at their responses and provide them with feedback.  I can also print out the results and use them along with anecdotal notes I keep on my students. 

                                  How do you use these type of devices in your classroom?
