Augmented reality is an interactive experience that combines the real world and computer-generated content. This technology can be used to engage students with interactive learning materials such as virtual field trips, science simulations, language learning, and creative storytelling. This article discusses how teachers can get students engaged and to enjoy the books they are reading and lessons they are learning.

Wordle is a web-based word game created and developed by Welsh software engineer Josh Wardle. Players have six attempts to guess a five-letter word, with feedback given for each guess in the form of colored tiles indicating when letters match or occupy the correct position. Wordle can help students increase students vocabulary.

In this article, 12 examples of how to incorporate QR codes into classrooms are given. In my future classroom I plan to use QR codes to make learning stations throughout the classroom, check answers, and link students to helpful resources such as educational videos to further their understanding outside of the classroom.

In this article Laura Candler discusses her experiences with Nearpod, its features, benefits, and offers tips on how educators can effectively integrate it into their teaching practices.

In this video it shows an example of an AR book. Even as a student at a much higher reading level who could easily stay focused long enough to read a short children's book and grasp the full meaning of it, this is a way to show visually the story of the book and hold the readers attention longer. I plan to use AR in my classrooms as a way to keep students engaged even on simple readings to help grasp the full meaning of the content.
