I've been trying hard all year to help my students become more proficient at their keyboarding skills. We work hard in class to improve our speed and accuracy, but it's also helpful if students can practice at home. Here are some websites that you can use to help your students (or own children) practice their keyboarding skills: Online Lessons: •Dance Mat Typing •Learn to Type {Big Brown Bear} •Keyboarding Tutor Practice Games: •Typing Test •Popcorn Typer •Alpha Quick •Keyboarding Games Speed Tests: •Typing Test •Power Typing If you want a paper note to print out to send home with parents, you can use this one I typed up. It includes the Utah benchmark goals (per grade level) for words per minute, to help give parents an idea of where their children should be. {Download here}

Technology Thursday is a weekly linky dedicated to all things technology related. Check out our Tech Thursday page for details on how to link up! Today I am going to share my 5 go-to apps for practicing multiplication facts. Monster Math My first app is Monster Math. The whole game is built around a story of a monster trying to get his friend back. Students are walked through various stages to find the monster's friend. Teachers can edit the number ranges, operation and so much more! Times Tables Quiz Up next is Times Tables Quiz. This is your basic multiplication drill app. I love that the numbers are easy to see, the score changes in the upper right corner (the more quickly they go the higher their points) and the app itself is easy for students to maneuver. Times Tables Game My next go-to app is Times Tables Game. This app has a fun"ninja" style and my students love it! Teachers have the ability to set the range of numbers for the multiplication problems. There is also a timer, so if students are taking too long- it times them out and their turn is over. Math Monsters Bingo The next app is definitely a student FAVORITE. it is called Math Monsters Bingo. Students are given a multiplication problem at the top of their screen and they click the product at the bottom. A little monster marker shows up! Their goal is to get 5 in a row. For each product, there are numerous places a student could pick so they need to not only know the product, but be strategic in choosing one that will help them get to 5 in a row. Multiplication Flash Cards Match The last app is called Multiplication Flash Cards Match. Students play a memory style match game with the flashcards! One flashcard will show the number sentence and the other shows the product. The levels keep changing as students progress through the game. As they make a match the flashcards "explode" into little bits of confetti! So much fun!! I hope that these five apps will be helpful in your classroom! I know that my students always need a bit of practice with their math facts. Using new apps helps to keep their interest up and each app offers a different challenge! Do you have any go-to math apps for multiplication? Link up below with your own Website or App recommendations, Tech Tips, Tutorials, or anything else tech-related! We can't wait to learn from you!

I. am. obsessed! To say the least. I was introduced to Seesaw this year during one of our "Wonderful Wednesday" optional professional development sessions. An amazing teacher in our school who knows all the new happenings in the technology/education world was holding an info session on Seesaw - an interactive learning journal that you can use in your classroom. "It even works for kindergarten!" Is it just me, or do we hear that ALL. THE. TIME. and it never actually works for us. Let's face it. Kindergarten is different *in the best way possible*. So I went. And I told myself I would walk on out if I didn't think it would work for my kids. Not all apps are good for 5 and 6 year olds who can't quite read yet. Well, I stayed, the whole time. Trust me. This app works with Kinders! It is super easy to use. There are endless ways to use it. It is just FABULOUS! (By the way, you can get a free month of Seesaw plus right here! It has some really awesome features to help you communicate with parents, prepare for conferences, and track student progress!) Here is a list of ways to use Seesaw with your kindergarten students: (V = video P = photo D = draw) I often have my students record over any drawings & photos so that they can explain what is going on. Math: Write numbers! (D) Draw a picture to represent a number (D) Compare two sets of objects & orally explain which is more or less (P) Demonstrate 1 to 1 counting & state the number counted (V) Count from 1 - 100 by 1's and 10's (V) Represent & explain teen numbers by using a group of ten and some ones (P) Draw 2-D shapes and record what they are (D) Find 2-D and 3-D shapes in the classroom. Name the shape! (P) (V) Compare two different shapes & orally explain how they are alike and how they are different (P) Place an object somewhere and use positional words to describe where it is (P) Solve an equation in a variety of ways (D) Explain how they solved an equation (V) Show partners of any given number (P) ELA: Finish a sentence. Give them a starter & have them expand it (V) Retell a book (V) Draw the characters in a story (D) Draw the setting of a story (D) Explain how two books are alike and different (V) Answer a question by showing evidence from the book (P) Read a piece of writing (P) Practice writing & reading sight words (D) Read a book (V) Practice fluency (V) Other: Give weather reports (V) Send a message to parents on Valentine's Day (V) Tell parents something new they learned that week (V) I am sure there are 100's of other ways! How have you used SeeSaw in your classroom?
