Comments for Teacher # 2

Eggsercizes
I am an EDM 310 student at the University of South Alabama and have been assigned to follow your blog. I am a physical education major and this assignment is very exciting. I appreciate that you are incorporating health and fitness in your classroom. People tend to forget the importance of exercising and it is very refreshing to see you acknowledge this! I love this idea...thanks for the post!

Nintendo DS in Elementary Classroom

Using this game system as a learning tool is a great twist on game systems. Most kids who have game systems do not wish to purchase word/learning games. By incorporating the use of these games in classrooms, hopefully kids will be encouraged play them outside of class. Great way to use technology as a learning tool at an early age. Thanks for sharing!

Teaching Science Vocabulary
Teaching science vocabulary was a tool this teacher used when teaching her class chemistry. Since the vocabulary is very heavy in chemistry, the teacher wanted to discover a way to engage students' minds. And this is just what happened. Seven different stations were set up that consisted of Jenga vocabulary, smartboard activities, paper chains, two truths and a lie, head bandz, name that mixture, and loooping. Each activity was very interactive and did a wonderful job exemplifying chemistry vocabulary.
