Gadgets

I would use the calorie counter to help kids learn about how important eating healthy is. I am taking a personal health class and we elarned that in the last ten years the obesity weight of children has increased a lot.

I have youtube as one of my gadgets because there are many different useful videos you can watch to keep kids interested and focused and at the same time learn.

I used the calender to help students learn the days of the week. This would only be useful with kindergarden students and maybe first grade.

The multiplication table can be really useful when teaching kids multiplication. I remember my teachers used this method more than anything else to help us learn how to multiply.

I used the fish because you can change the colors of the fish and change how many fish are on the picutre. This will help students when learning colors and adding. They can count how many fish are blue, green, red, etc.
