Kindergarteners know how important it is to learn what their letters look like and the sounds they make. So, we thought we should practice our early reading skills in the lab too. Since we are Techie Kids, we thought we’d try to use technology to support our learning and have some fun along the way. More >

Well, you may have noticed that something looks different around here. Last week, the Techie Kids visited our blog buddies, Mr. Avery and Mrs. Watson’s, class blogs. They were super excited when they saw the Christmas decorations and immediately started asking if we could decorate too. Of course, they didn’t have to ask me twice! More >

Techie Kids Choral Reading

I think the Hear-All Recorder is a great tool for teachers and especially for newer teachers. Many times I wish I was able to record DRA testing so I can go back and hear where the students may need my help – since many times teachers are filling out all the paperwork and listening for mistakes that we can not always focus on what exactly the student is missing. Also it would be a great way to be able to take work home which teachers often do.
I would love to be able to use this technology in my classroom.

I would love the Hear ALL Assessment Recorder for my elementary school and classroom. These would be great tools to use during our literacy centers and circles. I would like to record groups performing a readers theater or any story! Thanks for this fabulous opportunity!

I could use the recorder for the students to read aloud for fluency practice. They could listen to their voice when they’re done.

Wow ! What a great tool! This would be especially helpful with teachers getting used to their new DRA2 Kits. Having the ability to hear students again and even share with them would be a great instructional tool. I would love to see this be able to be used at my school!

I love the idea of recording small group reading. Reader’s Theater will take on a new dimension when the students can actually hear themselves back on the recording. I still remember the first time I heard my voice on tape…weird (I sounded weird, that is). Heehee.
