LECTURE
HAND-WRITTEN
Technology Items
• Low Tech• General Access• Reading and Writing• Mathematics• Alternate Expressions to Demonstrate
Learning • Social Learning Opportunities
Low-Tech Tools
• Post-its– Flags
• Sheet protector and cardstock• Graph paper• File folders
Paper to Support Writing
• Graph paper– use to help with spacing– use to help with uniformity of letter size – use to write spelling words – gives shape to
words and helps visual learners (use regular graph paper for this activity)
Pencil Grips
• Pencil grips:– helps with hand and finger fatigue– triangular pencils are available for students (I
tested them in my classroom and students seem to like them better than “regular” pencils with pencil grips.)
Highlighters• Highlighters:– use to highlight directions– use to highlight vocabulary words or terms– use to highlight spelling words – give each
vowel sound or pattern a different color (helps visual learners)
– use to highlight margin– use to highlight mathematical signs

“...by keeping our attention focused on what has seemed to work in the past rather than on what is needed for the future, we run the further risk of missing a current political opportunity to actually remake the landscape of education in a way that will prepare students for the new demands of the globalized economy and interdependent world.”

And That Ain’t Good”December 2007
