Week No 4

Hi Guus

I hope your'e all doing well in school, and the Meitzav tset is already behind you.

My week was quite full, I visited Tel-Aviv  and attended AliBaba webinar conference about sourcing products from China, I learned a lot and it was very interesting conference.

In this week task I found a lot of gret tools that I can use with my students.

1. http://photofunia.com - My students constantly asking me to teach "outside" of the book and use more of Youtube and fun activities, since I'm having some discipline problemsI attend to "surrender" to their requests and cooperate with them. I asked my 8B students to write down their motto in life and find a photo that will emphesize it the best way. My example was: Work hard play harder. In order to sucseed you need to try and fail, try and fail, and to put a lot of effort in school. I see it as the univeral formula for sucsses. I used $$$ sign as the variable for sucsess though its quite materialistic

2. Google Images my perfect vacation - writing task. 

I typed in Google images the key words: tropical island

and ask my 9th graders to write 100 words essay about their perfect summer vacation. 

They will go to google and find their perfect location to travel, they will need to describe according the picture what they did during the vacation and what was most fun for them.

Week Number 3 - My Experience with Puzzle Makers

I don't consider myself as an artistic person, I'm also very busy in my daily  routine (I guess you all very busy as well). I think the sites that I review during the past 3 days offer the ideal solution for me.  I'm quite familiar with Quizlet, Kahoot , QUIZZIZ and many more interactive sites that basiclly offer the same product in differenr variations.
I loved the fact that the sites I reviewd are easy to use and generating the work sheet rapidly with no hassle or waste of time, no editing, no designing involved, simple tamplate and you can generate the worksheet on Auto Pilot, real time saver for me simple and easy.
I tried this tool and highly recommend you to use it -

My Blogs

Week number 2:

I decided to follow the following blogs:

1.http://bhtechnology.blogspot.co.il/

2.https://admtechnology.wordpress.com/

3. https://21centuryedtech.wordpress.com/

So the first insight I learned was how to use Google Hangouts. In Barbers Hill School the teachers and students learn literacy and math via google hangouts. The students communicate with other students from other schools via google hangouts, and share their knowledge and skills in a fun and beneficial way.

I also learned about different technological tools that can help students improve their reading and writing.
This site: http://www.comicmaster.org.uk offer students to write their own comic in a creative and very vivid way, they can also write a report using crtoons and present it in front of the class

Anither great site is http://www.zooburst.com. this site enabels students to create their own 3D pop - up book, it's very easy to use and very fun.
