Using videos in the classroom are an added resource to students' learning process. However, looking for the right video can be very time consuming. I spent several hours looking for a science video on the phases of the moon since our fourth graders need additional support in comprehending this concept. I viewed many videos in Spanish since we will be teaching science in Spanish next year. Unfortunately, the majority of the videos in Spanish are not compatible with our science vocabulary and/or not useful resources to enhance science skills. The GOOD NEWS is that our students could make their own videos and place them on YouTube.
DOKI DESCUBRE: EL SOL Y LA NOCHE
LAS FASES DE LA LUNA
I selected these two videos entitled, Doki Descubre: El sol y la noche and Las fases de la luna from YouTube because they are student friendly. Students can view them to reinforce previously taught concepts.
In a perfect world, students should know their multiplication facts by fourth grade, right?
So there are many, many videos for students who haven't learned them to practice their multiplication facts in a math center. This video entitled, Math Times Tables for 3, 6, 9 from Mister Numbers are strategies for students who are struggling to learn their multiplication facts. It's a fun strategy for right brain thinkers!
