Besides creating the video for ease of my students' transition, I plan on using the "rectangles" slideshow I developed on the Smartboard to help my students learn "rectangle" in another fun way (with my students, I need lots of ways to teach the same thing over and over again). Maybe Chad can help me find a way to have my guys draw a rectangle around each "real world" rectangle on the Smartboard.
My special students do not get to brag or chat about fun things they get to do in school. Their parents only hear from me on a "talker" about their day. I will be teaching my assistants to utilize iPhoto so we can make a "talking picture album" with all the pictures we have taken of the guys. It is fun for them to see and hear about themselves, great for learning to turn pages and pressing the talk button.
Next year I will be getting more students and some with higher abilities. I would like to use the flip camera for modeling procedures and behaviors. I know it will be beneficial for my kitchen safety unit.
This was an excellent class for me. It was taught in a way I could understand. I gained more technology information that can be applied directly to my classroom and learned from others in the room.
