This month's EDCompass newsletter is now available. It's a great issue that focuses on differentiating instruction. I enjoyed the newsletter this month and was excited to see the list of Lesson Activity Contest Winners. I highly recommend that you download and review all the lessons to see how other teachers are using Notebook. In addition to the contest winners, the newsletter also includes information on seasonal resources in their Classroom Content section. Here's a summary of what's included in the newsletter:
Celebrate the season with the following Christmas lesson activities. There’s also an activity to help you practice differentiation.
Christmas Activities: Language arts students in grades 1–3 can complete Christmas word games and crossword puzzles, and even build a snowman!
Christmas Math Fun: Math students in grades 4–6 can practice addition and subtraction, money, and time word problems.
Four Key Events in the 20th Century: Social studies students in grades 7–9 can identify the main causes of four key events in the 20th century. Differentiation can be achieved by adding various website links and customizing the questions to help students explore the different historic events.
Thanks to all the wonderful people at SMART Technology who continue to bring us these wonderful resources!
Sharing is Caring!
