It’s the size of a pocket!
Tonight I have been searching for interesting resources that I can use to integrate ICTs into the classroom, and I came along this slideshow of ideas of how to use a pocket video camera in the classroom (https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1EU3chDsvvyNo8atu6GNljpMHh4IuMJBHzgN154GB6uk/present?slide=id.i0). I really like this slideshow for a few reasons. Firstly, I love creating videos. Secondly, I think that students would love it too. Thirdly, I would love to see videos that students would create and I love seeing children being creative! The ideas that are presented on this slideshow are fantastic, and I’ll just list a few of my favourites.
1. Interview a classmate about a recommended book and why it should be read.
2. Ask children to film what they’ve been doing, and show it at parent night.
3. Make a video alphabet by getting young children to draw brightly coloured letters of the alphabet/phonics. Film them holding up their drawings and saying it.
All of these are really interesting ideas and there are so many more!
