Thing #12


This slideshow is an example of a possible Math Vocabulary activity. Students could create a slideshow using pictures that they find or pictures that they take, showing a visual or non-linguistic representation of the math term. Using the 'puzzle' feature, students can guess what the word is, before the picture is complete. That could even be a competitive game for students to really get engaged with the vocabulary. What a great way for students to document their learning and for them to see their work and share it! I enjoyed creating this slideshow using Slide.com. It was easy to do! Thank you for another free educational technology resource!

  1. I think that idea is great! What a perfect way to get those visual learners to see the vocabulary and connect it to the outside world.
