Omnes,
I wanted to take just a brief moment of your time to introduce you to two very exciting tools that my students have been using lately and LOVE. One is Quizlet. I took two days and assigned each of my students a chapter in the book to put on Quizlet. We went to the school library and loaded our "Group" with these flash cards. Quizlet helps students memorize vocabulary by practicing flash cards and even playing games (space race is very popular). They even compete with one another as to who has the high score. It's fun to hear "I BEAT YOUR SCORE ON LESSON XIII" being yelled across the library.
Also, as most of our students have gotten into the use of Android devices, I take some time once a week to look at what is out there. Unfortunately I have not found much (if you know of one, please post here). I did, however, find one I like called Latin Tester. It is a very clean, fast, basic way for students to practice verbs. My students say they like to do it when waiting at a Dr. Office, on the bus to sporting events, etc. I love the concept of having Latin in our students' pockets. It is truly amazing what this technology can do to help engage our students.
If you have something that you would like to share with the members here, please send me a message and you can be a "guest" poster.
Pax,
Matthew Paul-Frank Duran
