Google Slides Part 2


   

I believe that teachers should always try to improve their skills as much as they can by evaluating 
themselves in a regular basis. I struggled a little last time to make my Google Slides a little more 
interesting, and that helped me to become better at Google Slides! I know you have to move backwards 
a little to move forwards sometimes. I was frustrated but I was able to learn a valuable lesson.
This time around, I was able to analyze what I did and change it a little so that it flows better. 
In addition to making some changes, I added some more slides that will allow my students practice 
their prepositions. I think they will have fun doing the activities and it’s an easy way for me to check 
if they understand how the prepositions “in”, “on”, and “at” work. I will have to try it with my students, 
and I will report back to you! :) 

Here is my Google Slide! Enjoy and please let me know what you think!

  3. Hi Elisabeth,

    Great updates to your presentation! These projects are a lot of work up front, especially when we can't get it to work right. But this is a great example of taking a break, and then going back to make improvements. Now your document is done, and you will have little work to do on it for the next school year.

    I couldn't figure out how to fix my Google Slides problem, so I just gave up and moved on to something different. Sometimes that is the best path, too.

Things I Know Now, That I Didn't Know Then

Before Starting EDU 585 I thought that I was pretty up-to-date with technology in general and as a learner I always tried to push myself to look for new ways I could to make my classes more interactive and student oriented. However, I would have a hard time sometimes figuring out some of the technology that was available out there all by myself. So when I heard I had to take EDU 585, I got excited because I knew that this course would provide me with more than what I was looking for. And it sure did. As a learner , I couldn’t wait to master new ways I could help my students not only reach their goals but also I couldn’t wait to try new technology that would help me as an educator, and reflect on them on a daily basis. What I gained and What I know Now Once I started taking this course, I realized how behind I was with all the technology that is currently available for educators. Looking through my blog posts, I realized how much I’ve learned by taking this cl...

First Blog EDU 585

First Blog Experience EDU 585 My personal experience creating a blog through www.blogger.com wasn't easy at all. I was trying to create a new blog in blogger.com through Google Chrome and it wouldn't let me. I was getting so frustrated that I decided to take a break and resume the following day. I am so glad I did since I was able to use internet Explorer and it finally worked. However, I tried to save my drafts through Blogger but it wouldn’t save anything! So I decided to save my draft in Google Docs. I don’t know if others had the same issues as me. In my opinion, it isn’t user friendly at all. I don’t like being this negative about it but I think Google Sites is easier and user friendlier than Blogger.   On the other hand, I really liked how I can add an image from a website (a unique resource locator) and it would automatically create a hyperlink so that people can click on that image and see exactly where it came from. Nevertheless, I know I run a risk of t...

Formative Assessments

Teachers should always remember to create some time to reflect on their own teaching and focus on the need of their students. Therefore, I believe that formative assessments are a way of helping our  students accomplish their academic goals. Formative Assessments help students have an idea of  where they are academically and what they need to get to mastery. The formative assessment tool I chose for my pre and post-assessment is called Quizizz . I picked  this one because students tend to like it more than Kahoot or Socrative. The pros of using Quizizz is  that it is student paced and I can display on my smartboard where my students are as far as getting  the items right or wrong. It gives me and the students a quick snapshot of how much they know about  the topic. For this week’s assignment, I want to assess how much my students know about infinitives  (grammar). They should know it, but it is always good to double check...
