I am very interested in the idea of a flipped classroom. Allowing students to watch the lesson ahead of time can allow the teacher to have more time to coach and facilitate learning instead of instructing. I chose to make an EduCreations video for our shared reading lesson this week. We are studying how to follow directions found in informational text.
Here is my link: https://www.educreations.com/lesson/view/screen-cast-text-features/30194881/?s=jLBDgt&ref=appemail
*I did notice that the format is different when I play it on my ipad vs. the computer. I'll have to look into this more...
I plan to show the video on Thursday and then email it to parents with my weekly newsletter. This way, students can access the directions at home if they plan to make one of the activities in the lesson (i.e. directions about planting seeds, making a guitar, and making a shaker).
I look forward to intentionally planning more ways to utilize screencasts for my students and their learning.
