Classdojo
ClassDojo is a place where teachers, students, and parents can communicate.
Pictures and videos can also be uploade to share with one another.
I have noticed ClassDojo is a helpful tool for many teacher as the ones I help out use them daily in their classrooms. Many of them use it as a way for students to recieve points.
Animoto is a video creation platform that allows user to combine video clips, text, photos, and music to create a single video.
I created a slideshow of spelling word with pictures and music that can be shown to students. Instead of writing the words on the board they can watch the video and have a more enjoyable learning experience. Showing videos in the classroom is a great way to grab students attention and engage them in learning.
