Pay Attention!

This video is suppose to motivate teachers that they should use technology in their classrooms because so many children are being exposed to technology at younger ages. for example, video games and computer games. Times have changed and it is important that we incorporate technology in the classroom.

E-Teaching

This video is about E-teaching and how it has become popular over the years. E-teaching enhances the students learning experience because it engages and interests them. Technology has evolved and has become apart of oue culture so it is only smart it use it in the classroom.

Multiplication Table


This is a Multiplication Table, it is great for children to memorize when learning their times tables. i would use this in the classroom by putting a poster size up in the classroom and i would also have each child make their own.

Periodic Table


This is an Image of the Periodic Table, i would use this as a visual when teaching students chemistry or just the basic elements. This Image is a nice visual because the different groups are color coded so it can help students remember easier.

Map of U.S

This is a map of the United States with the state capitals. I would use this map in the classroom while teaching students states and their state capitals. This is a good image to use because it is big and only the state capitals are shown in each state.
