7 Resources for Teaching+Learning Vocab One of my teaching assignments this semester is to work with students who need extra help preparing for the SAT (all 11th grade students in my school are required to take it). I split the responsibility with a mathematics teacher. My focus is on helping the students develop their reading skills and knowledge of vocabulary. This assignment got me to go back in my archives of resources for teaching and learning vocabulary. Vocab Ahead offers online study rooms in which students can take practice vocabulary quizzes. Wordia is a free visual, video dictionary. Word Stash is a free service that describes itself as "half vocabulary builder, half dictionary, and full awesome." Knoword is a fun and challenging game that tests your ability to match definitions to words. Flashcards, either online or physical, still seem to be one of the preferred methods of studying vocabulary words. Words, Words, Words is a free vocabulary app for Android from Socratica.
Writer's Workshop Resources and Ideas The majority of time of Writing Workshop is devoted to independent writing. During this time, students are prewriting, drafting, revising, editing, and publishing their pieces. Depending on the age and abilities of your students, independent writing can be as short as 15 minutes or as long as 45-60 minutes. It helps to build stamina with your class, beginning with a short amount of time and building that time until they can work for up 30 minutes or more. According to Katie Wood Ray (The Writing Workshop, 2001), students can also do other activities during their writing time, such as writing in their schema notebooks journal writing writing exercises to experiment with language and style conducting peer-conferences reading to support writing During independent writing time, the teacher confers with students about their writing. Teachers should keep conferences short. Websites on Conferring:
Istanze Il progetto POLIS (Presentazione On Line delle IStanze) ha come obiettivo lo snellimento dei procedimenti amministrativi. Esso è basato sul Codice dell’Amministrazione Digitale (CAD), che sancisce il diritto da parte dei cittadini ad interagire con la Pubblica Amministrazione, utilizzando gli strumenti offerti dalle tecnologie ICT in alternativa alle modalità tradizionali basate su moduli cartacei. In particolare tale normativa cita, tra le alternative atte a garantire in modo sicuro l’accesso ai servizi in rete delle pubbliche amministrazioni, quella che prevede l’uso di normali credenziali di accesso come codice utente e password, a condizione che le stesse consentano di accertare l’identità del soggetto richiedente i servizi.
Quizinator Transitions and Transitional Devices Summary: A discussion of transition strategies and specific transitional devices. Contributors:Ryan Weber, Karl StolleyLast Edited: 2013-03-01 10:35:20 Good transitions can connect paragraphs and turn disconnected writing into a unified whole. Instead of treating paragraphs as separate ideas, transitions can help readers understand how paragraphs work together, reference one another, and build to a larger point. It is a good idea to continue one paragraph where another leaves off.
