Teacher and Media Specialist

Today my students went to the computer lab, they go there at least once a week to play educational games on the computer. From talking to my teacher, he informed me that the teachers and the media specialist at the school were able to comply a list of website that the teachers love and that are beneficial for the students. They use what we all know as...Symbaloo. The first time I noticed that, I thought it was awesome to see that something we used in the classroom for practice is actually being used out there in schools. So each grade under the school has a list of websites teachers can allow their students to go on. For example today in class the students focus on fiction and non-fiction book. When it was time to go to the computer lab, the symbaloo page was up and all the students had to do was click "K" for Kindergarten and then to the website the teacher wanted them to go on and then they were able to find a list of fiction and non-fiction books to read online.

What a great resource page put together by both parties!

  2. It sounds like Symbaloo is not only helpful for teachers to gather useful websites but also can be used for students to go certain websites at the computer lab. Thank you for sharing the other way of utilizing Symbaloo in the classroom setting. Also it is a good way to make students visit beneficial websites related to the lesson.
