         <description><![CDATA[<div>This depends on what the data represents. If you are simply wanting to show the difference in the numbers, I would say a bar graph would be the best choice. It allows you to see what the numbers represent, but it does not show the connectedness of the numbers like a line graph would. </div>]]></description>

If the problem they are Working on is 5 + 4, they would start from 0 and hop their frog to 5, then add on an additional 4 by hopping their frog 4 more spaces to get their answer of 9. </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div><strong>Name of interactive</strong>: Deep Sea Duel<br><strong>Grade Level</strong>: 3-5<br><strong>Mathematics in this activity:</strong> In this activity, students can play with a friend, or challenge the pre-programmed character "Okta" on the game. The game gives you 9 or 16 bubbles with varying numbers on each bubble (the number of bubbles is an option to choose before the game starts). Then, once the game has started, there is a target sum at the top of the screen. Students will take turns choosing bubbles, either with their partner or Okta, that add up to make the target sum. This challenges students to think about numbers and the sum they get when added together. They could have a set plan of the numbers they need to reach the target sum, but their partner could take a number they once planned to use to get to the target sum. </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Desmos.com is an online graphing calculator, and the website is free. Specifically, the website offers a HTML5 graphing calculator that I believe would benefit students in grades 6-12. This application can be used in classrooms many ways. If each student has their own chrome book, they could individually get on the website and graph any problems they might have on homework, in class assignments, etc. </div>]]></description>

         <title>7. Technologies that enhance teaching</title>
         <author>meglowe01</author>
         <link>https://padlet.com/meglowe01/q1r4neel2lhz/wish/130015460</link>
         <description><![CDATA[<div>Some technologies that enhance teaching would be the NCTM Illuminations website. The lesson that I viewed and looked over was very easy to understand and it had pictures for the students to view. The way things were described was written in student friendly language. Also, tying in "frog jumping" to the lesson is very helpful for student to grasp how they are going to count on with the number line.  </div>]]></description>

         <title>8. Technologies that enhance student learning</title>

         <link>https://padlet.com/meglowe01/q1r4neel2lhz/wish/130015483</link>
         <description><![CDATA[<div>Also the NCTM Illuminations website would help students enhance their learning. The Deep Sea Duel activity that I listed above would be a great way for students to use their addition skills, while making them think quickly to add different numbers to make a given sum. This math lesson is in the form of a game, and all students love to get up and play games throughout the day. Incorporating learning into that would be a great way to make sure they understand their addition facts.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Some key concerns I have with using technology in my classroom is the possibility of the software crashing. I would not want to put all of my eggs in one basket, so to speak. I would want to have acitivities and lessons prepared if the technology ever was to not cooperate/not work. </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Technology is quickly becoming more and more dominant in the classroom. In grades 1-6, students can have their own individual chrome book (in some schools) where they are assigned work online through their curriculum website. In my current placement, they use iReady for math, and Wonders for literacy and both curriculums come with an online component for both the students and the teacher. </div>]]></description>

         <link>https://padlet.com/meglowe01/q1r4neel2lhz/wish/130015659</link>
         <description><![CDATA[<div>I believe random.org would be great for the dice lesson. It would use the dice rolling aspect of the website, which would cut down on materials the teacher needs to bring into the classroom.&nbsp;The Wolfram Alfa website would be a good resource for the ladybug lesson. You could look up certain details about ladybugs like what their population was like in a certain year, or any other habits students could have questions about concerning ladybugs. </div>]]></description>
