Three reflections

The sites that I found during this assignment I think would be infinitely helpful. These resources can really help out in the classroom because they offer a fun opportunity for the students to work on the math skills that we have been teaching them these sites offer a chance for a fun look at what they have been seeing on paper during all of the teaching. This could really be used in the classroom because we could use them in centers or for extra practice. These sites were fantastic because the offer a fun way to look at the material that we have been covering.

The videos for this assignment are also very useful because they can show the new approaches to solving math problems. This is very useful because it can be helpful for the parent to see how they can see how the students are learning to add and subtract. These videos can show the new methods that are being introduced in the classroom, which are different than what they were taught.

The wordle can also be very helpful this can be used in the classroom by having the student seeing the different mathematical vocabulary, this can help them become familiar with the words and it can also help them to understand what they all mean and are with some extra practice. the way that I would incorporate these in the classroom would be to have the kids look for the words that are in it, also I would have the students do some activity to find the definitions for each of the words. Another incorporation for the classroom would be for the students to create their own wordle as an activity.
