This can serve as a fun,  interactive way for SPED teachers to test their students' knowledge without simply handing them a pencil and paper.]]> 2017-09-06 15:12:24 UTC https://padlet.com/baileyreece03/scmz65kdfptg/wish/185162321 baileyreece03 https://padlet.com/baileyreece03/scmz65kdfptg/wish/185165187 This is an application, located in the Apple App Store, that allows children to connect their phones/tablets/etc. and share a virtual "whiteboard." SPED students can use this app as a way to study with one another in a more intriguing way. 

For example, one student could write out a math problem and another could answer the problem from their own tablet.]]> 2017-09-06 15:17:49 UTC https://padlet.com/baileyreece03/scmz65kdfptg/wish/185165187 baileyreece03 https://padlet.com/baileyreece03/scmz65kdfptg/wish/185170312 Google Drive is wonderful to use for collaboration in the classroom. Students in my classroom can use the different tools to create slideshow presentations, write papers, make spreadsheets, etc. They can work from different work spaces, yet still contribute to the same document. This will not only help them to further understand the technology we use in the modern world, but it will also allow them to share their work with others for easy peer review and editing.]]> 2017-09-06 15:27:04 UTC https://padlet.com/baileyreece03/scmz65kdfptg/wish/185170312 baileyreece03 https://padlet.com/baileyreece03/scmz65kdfptg/wish/186540619 Skype can be used for virtual fieldtrips, video chats with speakers for the class, or Mystery Skype with classrooms around the world. Each one of these effectively uses technology to engage the class and broaden students' horizons while allowing them to collaborate with students outside of their own classroom.]]> 2017-09-11 19:19:04 UTC https://padlet.com/baileyreece03/scmz65kdfptg/wish/186540619 baileyreece03 https://padlet.com/baileyreece03/scmz65kdfptg/wish/186542872 Quizlet is a wonderful study tool for students in any classroom. My SPED students could benefit from making their own flashcards, along with being able to study them on a computer, tablet, or other electronic device with their peers. This technological tactic will keep students more engaged in studying than the traditional flashcard method because it can read the cards aloud to the student.]]> 2017-09-11 19:25:10 UTC https://padlet.com/baileyreece03/scmz65kdfptg/wish/186542872 baileyreece03 https://padlet.com/baileyreece03/scmz65kdfptg/wish/186579748 Mental Floss is a website that allows students to explore the world through articles in an interesting way. My students could benefit from this website in many ways, including: cultural learning, current event updates,  and quiz options over certain subjects. This is a great tool for group projects and presentations. This could also provide discussion topics for group talks in class.]]> 2017-09-11 21:46:51 UTC https://padlet.com/baileyreece03/scmz65kdfptg/wish/186579748 baileyreece03 https://padlet.com/baileyreece03/scmz65kdfptg/wish/186581839 This app is a great way for my students to break into groups to practice comparing, adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing fractions. They can help each other with problems they are stuck on or work together to work through problems that none of them understand fully. Children in my classroom will not be on the same education level as their classmates who are in general education classes full time. This extra practice will help them tremendously. The involvement of a tablet or phone will make this intriguing to those who may typically not enjoy mathematics. ]]> 2017-09-11 22:00:03 UTC https://padlet.com/baileyreece03/scmz65kdfptg/wish/186581839 baileyreece03 https://padlet.com/baileyreece03/scmz65kdfptg/wish/186582816 This app allows students to challenge each other to an interactive Geography quiz. With participants divided into 2 teams, this game will engage students and allow them to work together to be the first team to answer questions and potentially win the game.]]> 2017-09-11 22:07:05 UTC https://padlet.com/baileyreece03/scmz65kdfptg/wish/186582816 baileyreece03 https://padlet.com/baileyreece03/scmz65kdfptg/wish/186584099 Discover Map is a website centered around science. This website allows students to interact with the page and discover articles and information about certain aspects of the subject. This research tool is perfect for finding presentation information for a group while appealing to students' interest in technology. This website comes with 3 different reading levels, which will be great for SPED students.]]> 2017-09-11 22:19:04 UTC https://padlet.com/baileyreece03/scmz65kdfptg/wish/186584099 baileyreece03 https://padlet.com/baileyreece03/scmz65kdfptg/wish/186585290 This app is a typical spinner with a personal twist. Each student could download the app and type the names of students in their group. During the group discussion, the spinner could determine who shares their thoughts next. This method would eliminate silence from a group work space and also make sure each student has a role in the assignment.]]> 2017-09-11 22:31:14 UTC https://padlet.com/baileyreece03/scmz65kdfptg/wish/186585290
