2. Math Major Student teaching sites: Slinger Middle School 7th Grade Math Pre Algebra Lutheran High School of Indianapolis Geometry Pre Calculus Honors Pre Calculus Calculus A little about me
3. Daily use of SMARTBoard & Promethean Board Very similar boards, but coming from different companies Occasional use of the Smart Response Clickers Frequent use of Geometer’s Sketchpad A couple games of Green Globs Encouraged my students to follow me on Twitter Overview
4. I love to begin class with a comic Sometimes math related, sometimes not Comics are projected onto the Smartboard Comics
5. Helped students visualize Geometry 3 Dimensional graphing Conic Sections Every day my teacher would upload the notes made on the Smartboard to his website: http://sites.google.com/site/fredwillig/ Greatly helped with homework corrections I would scan and upload the document Allowed for powerpoints Allowed for easy access to the internet Smartboard
6. Students would respond using their clickers during their daily warm up This gave me instant feedback; what each student answered and how many got it correct Smart Response Clickers
7. Frequent use during geometry Allowed me to easily show various geometry concepts, such as centroids, medians, etc Allowed me to easily prove theorems with measurements Occasionally I would allow students to construct things using Sketchpad Geometer’s Sketchpad
8. Math game that challenged students to pop the green globs with a plotted line Reinforced algebra skills, and helped with conic sections Green Globs
9. I used Google Groups for my technology lesson http://groups.google.com/group/math-lab-lhsi I had the students create a sketch using Sketchpad, then had them comment on one page, and then upload their files to the group. Presentation
