Using the Elmo Document Camera



Subjects:  Math, Language Arts
Grades:  K, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
Technology tools:  Document camera
Activity type:  Lesson, Project

I use Elmo as a group instruction tool during math, reading, and written language.  All IEP objectives are generated from standard curriculum per grade level.

Teacher uses materials for instruction, then students are expected to "direct" the teacher to follow up with examples, i.e., talking students through the process.

After instruction and examples, students work independently to determine whether the skill is understood and retained.

This method is both successful and is enjoyed by the students.
