I have enjoyed working with kindergarten over the past few months!
Here are some updates:
Each kindergarten class joined me for a coding lesson using Pixel the dog on tynker.com in December and January.
At the beginning of February, I pulled a group of students from Mrs. Harwood's class. We wrote about a topic they were interested in (most of them chose what they wanted to be when they grow up) and then recorded ourselves with pictures on the iPad app Educreations.
I also started a pull out group with students from each of the four kindergarten classes. Our focus was working on analogies. Students watched some videos on analogies, worked with pictures forming relationships, and did some activity pages with analogies. I loved getting to know some of our kindergarten friends!
Next, in Mrs. Goolsby's class we worked with a really neat instructional technology tool called "plickers." Students answered questions identifying different types of coins and held up premade "plicker" cards in order to tell us what coin they thought it was! The students really enjoyed this activity!
