Mrs. Carol Tonsing's Senior English classes recently worked on an assignment using the Chromebooks which incorporated reading and writing at the same time in a digital platform. Students were reading from a digital text on one side of their screen, while completing an analysis on the other side. As you can see from the images above, each student found a way that worked best for them and thanks to the technology being readily available to them, the students were able to interact with the text AS they were reading. Mrs. Tonsing wrote in an email, "It creates more a visual transaction of text for them. They are annotating and commenting as they go...a few kids even used their headphones to listen to the audio version of the text."
This is just one lesson on one particular day at the high school. Imagine the possibilities that exist as we continue to learn new ways to integrate technology resources with our students!
Thanks for sharing your lesson with us, Mrs. Tonsing!
