Learning How To Write

bull MATERIALS

bull 1048707 Elmo document camera

bull 1048707 Projector

bull 1048707 One paper with the letters of the alphabet to be practiced clearly written (divided by strokes if desired)

bull 1048707 Whiteboard or large sheet of paper that students can write on

How Can We adapt this to our Classrooms

bull BEFOREbull 1 Prepare paper with letter formations to be practicedbull DURINGbull 2 Project the image of the letters to be practiced using the Elmo document camerabull 6bull 3 Have students line up at the projected imagebull 4 Direct the first student to copy the first letter of the listbull 5 After allowing sufficient time to copy the assigned letter erase what is written andbull have the first student rotate to the next letter to the right The first student begins tobull form the second letter and the next student in line begins to form the first letterbull 6 Repeat rotation continuing until all students have rotated through to finish formingbull each letterbull AFTERbull 7 Leave projected image of the targeted letters Have students work independently tobull create the letters on their own paper

bull CONTENT AREA HEALTH EDUCATIONbull Increase studentsrsquo awareness of food ingredients and

percentages of nutritionalbull components such as vitamins minerals carbohydrates

protein fat sodium and fiber bybull using an Elmo document camera to project the images

of actual food wrappers This activitybull can be an eye-opening experience for everyonebull MATERIALSbull 1048707 Elmo document camerabull 1048707 Projectorbull 1048707 Food wrappers that contain nutrition and ingredient

information

Hmmm can you guess what label this is

bull PROCEDUREbull BEFOREbull 1 Assign students to bring in an item of food or only the wrapper that contains thebull nutrition and ingredient labelbull 16bull DURINGbull 2 Using the Elmo document camera project the ingredients and nutritional label of

thebull food items or wrappers that students have brought inbull 3 As a class discuss the components of each food item displayed calling attention

tobull certain target conceptsbull AFTERbull 4 Project several wrappers with nutritional information that have not already beenbull discussed as a class Have students discuss collaboratively which food is the

healthiestbull based on the information given or have students write a paragraph critically analyzingbull the healthiness of the items displayed

Blinding Me With Sciencebull CONTENT AREA SCIENCEbull The following activity can be used to introduce or review examples

of sciencebull concepts in categories such as vertebrates and invertebrates An

Elmo document camerabull allows all students to actively participatebull MATERIALSbull 1048707 Elmo document camerabull 1048707 Projectorbull 1048707 One paper with the category names listed in columnsbull 1048707 Papers cut in small pieces with the names of different animals to

classify intobull vertebrates and invertebrates

Can Students Make Their Own Cards

bull PROCEDUREbull BEFOREbull 1 Label the piece of paper with the category names ie vertebrate and invertebratebull 2 Write the names of different vertebrate and invertebrate animals on each of the smallbull cards (works best if there are enough examples for every member of the class)bull 21bull DURINGbull 3 Project the image of the diagram using the Elmo document camerabull 4 Pass out a small card with the name of an animal written on it to each studentbull 5 Direct students to decide whether the animal on each card is a vertebrate orbull invertebrate and place the card in the appropriate categorybull 6 Discuss as a class making corrections to student classifications as necessarybull AFTERbull 7 As a review activity on a separate occasion mix the cards and pass out to differentbull students repeat activity as listed abovebull 8 Create a few new cards with animal names that have not been previously reviewed asbull a class Project the image of the cards using an Elmo document camera Assignbull students to categorize the animals for homework To review homework the followingbull day as a class pass out the cards assigned as homework Allow students to place eachbull card in the appropriate category using the Elmo document camera

Reactive Readingbull Reading strategies such as underlining and taking notes in the

margin help studentsbull process texts for high-stakes reading tests However students are

frequently issued readingbull textbooks that they are not allowed to write in vastly limiting the

opportunities to practicebull active reading strategies An Elmo document camera can make

active reading possible forbull any textbull MATERIALSbull 1048707 Elmo document camerabull 1048707 Projectorbull 1048707 Text selected for analysisbull 1048707 Whiteboard or large sheet of paper that students can write on
