Quiz Week 7: pod cast and blackboard




Podcast:
What kind of activity is this?
This kind of activity is extremely challenging, but allows students to be creative in their own way and give them their own voice.

How does it challenge you?
This activity challenged me because i was extremely uncomfortable recording my own voice and having to make up a story. It seemed silly to me, but in the end I was relived it was over. It allowed me to take a step out of my comfortable box and take a chance.

What background knowledge are you using to complete this activity?
The background knowledge that children are more likely to do this type of activity. They have crazy imaginations, and would be able to create an inventive story from five pictures.



Metaphor Madness:
What kind of activity is this?
This activity forced the teacher to give examples to the kids and have them shadow it. It was an activity that allowed for demonstration.
How does it challenge you?
This challenges you because it forces you to chose the top five things that you think are important to the topic.
What background knowledge are you using to complete this activity?
The background knowledge of reading the text prior to class and the activity allowed me to complete this activity.
How much do you love this Blackboard compared to the other Blackboard? I love this blackboard its so much less complicated and easy to understand.

  1. Fabulous story - it goes with your princess thing (headband?) I see in your picture.
    This is an alternative way of authoring a story or taking a test for a student. Talking is a modality that we often overlook. It's challenging.
    Nice work
