This resource came from: https://ignitedlearningedu.weebly.com/blog/digital-tool-tidbit-classroom-screen Classroom Screen is an awesome toolbox to help teachers with one aspect of classroom management. It is a simple concept really. Here is a screenshot of a Classroom Screen I created: When you go to classroomscreen.com (and the site recommends using the Chrome browser), you are automatically brought onto your own Classroom Screen. There is no log-in or anything. The downside to this is that it won't save your screen from day to day, but the site maintains that it only takes about 30 seconds to setup your screen, and I would agree that it is SUPER fast and easy.
Let's look at the toolbox:
You wouldn't want to use all these tools at once on the screen, but with one click you can turn them on and off. If you turn something back on, during that sitting it WILL save your customizations. I turned off the text box with my morning directions and when I turned it back on, my text was still there! Once all of you get the hang of it, it could be a useful daily toolbox! This is a resource for teaching tier 1 mathematics.
The first few pages are addition/subtraction, but if you scroll down it shows how to use manipulatives to teach multiplication, division, fractions and more. It also has video examples (which I haven't watched yet). It includes a guide, sample activities, worksheets and supplementals. https://intensiveintervention.org/intervention-resources/mathematics-strategies-support-intensifying-interventions#numbers https://www.w3schools.com/
Teach your self HTML coding. Why? All websites involve HTML coding; that's how they are created. With programs, such as Dreamweaver, you can build your own website and apply pre-made CSS templates. With pre-made websites where you build pages without codeing, such as Weebly, Blogger, etc., you can manipulate the programs coding and add extra features that typically you don't get. This website includes tutorials, examples, exercises, and lots of other great information. https://happynumbers.com (your first 30 days are free) Program Description: HappyNumbers.com helps PK-5th grade teachers differentiate instruction and deepen students’ conceptual understanding of math. Driven by pedagogy and supported by technology (not vice versa), it’s not a set of electronic worksheets or another “all dancing, all singing” resource. Instead, we teach students to “think math”: Students explore the meaning behind the math, building upon simple concepts to create connections and develop deep understanding. While students are learning with Happy Numbers, Happy Numbers is learning about them. It scaffolds instruction and gives feedback based on each individual student’s level and progress -- it’s like having a teacher assistant for each student in the class!
