Show me the teaching!

So I have found a new great app.  It's called show me.  Here are a few things I have used it for.
  • stations
  • recording teaching
  • reading directions
  • homework help
  • remediation
  • whole and small group lessons
Here my students are taking a test with an oral administration.  I used to have this huge group to have to read to and some would be at different spots and I would reread the questions multiple times.  Then the rest of the class would get distracted or I even had one fall asleep because I couldn't monitor.  Now I record once and they can all login and hear my recording and rewind as many times as their little hear desires.  

Here is what our math interventionist made for us.  I felt like it was Christmas morning!  She made videos for each of our heavily tested skills.  Then based on my kids tracking sheet they know they need to watch any of these that they didn't do so hot on on the last assessment.   I have been working on making videos also.  My plan is to put a qr code at the top of review sheets the kids are working on and then they can work along with me on 1/2  and do the other half on their own.
