The Build a Prairie fits perfectly into their curriculum, as they are learning about habitats. The link to this is www.bellmuseum.org/distancelearning/prairie/build/ This would cover Standard 5 in Science
I found the perfect site for 4th grade math: http://www.uen.org/3-6interactives/math.shtml
This math site covers all standards that are required for 4th grade math.
In my 4th grade team the teachers teach a unit, test, and then do remediation for those who did not get 90% or above and then test those students again. I think that these two websites have games that would be great to have the 90% and above kids play while the others are being tested.
I thought the prairie application was also very interesting. I loved how it always provided link to learn more and gave simple explanations as to why certain things work while others didn't.
ReplyDeleteI agree that providing extra fun learning time would be a great use of time for the students that have already learned the things on the games. It would also be a great review and help them to truly apply that knowledge.
ReplyDeleteI like the idea of using the games for the kids that didn't quite get the concept the first time.
ReplyDeleteI like that you are thinking of ways to keep all of your diverse learners engaged. These links seem like they would be a great way for students to review what they have learned and to stay engaged in something rather than exploring the web on their own.
ReplyDeleteI went to these sites and really enjoyed them, and there was alot of great info
