MY FAVORITE CLASSROOM
TOOLSCarrie Gass
DESKTOP COMPUTER
The opportunities are endless with a
computer! Students can do research and use
interactive websites.
Teachers can use this to keep track of grades or use
this to show videos to a class on the projector.
LAP TOPA lap top is a
portable computer. It is
beneficial because students
can work independently but can also put the
cover down if you need their attention.
PROJECTOR
A projector projects images from a computer to a large surface. This helps a teacher or another student share videos or images or
show how to do something to the whole class.
DOCUMENT CAMERA
Also known as a visual presenter, a document camera captures real-time
images and displays them to large
audiences. This is great for showing how to do a math
problem, reading a book or performing a
dissection.
DIGITAL CAMERADigital cameras take still images and are great for projects. Students can take pictures and make
PowerPoint presentations out of
them.
SMART BOARDA smart board is
an interactive white board. The software for the smart board is loaded onto a local computer and the smart
board-compatible software can then be called upon for use on the screen.
Kids love interacting with it!
INTERWRITE PAD

can walk around the room and keep an eye on the kids as you are writing on the board.
ALPHASMART
Alphasmarts are portable word-processing keyboards. They are great for students who
have trouble writing or cannot spell very well.
INSPIRATION

help organizing information.

students to learn independently. Students can do
research and webquests or use
