Screencast

I used Educreations to create my screencast. I created a lesson on compound words for my 2nd grade students. I have to admit that I had to spend quite a bit of time playing around with it before I felt confident in creating a lesson. I still can’t figure out how to completely delete a page from it. I figured out how to clear or erase the page, but then that blank page still exists in the presentation. It all worked out as I just turned it into a title page.  I like the options it has for inputting information (audio recording option, you can draw, use text box, download pictures from camera or web).

I will use this with my students during small group as a warm up.  I could also email this link out to parents to let them know what we are working on and how we are teaching compound words. Due to limited resources for some families, I don’t think I would assign it as homework. It is a little time consuming, but once you have the lesson saved you will always have it to use.

 I am curious to know if you can edit a lesson once it has been saved??

  1. Hi Susan, great idea for a "flipped" lesson. I like how you included images for some of the compound words. One thing I'm wondering about is how to keep all these lessons organized in a way so I remember I have them to use them in the future.
