Describe 3 kinds of material generators that you have used or would like to use in your classroom. Be specific about how you would use the tools.
1. Worksheet and Puzzle Generators- Because I teach Kindergarten we try not to do very many "tests" than we have to. However, board members like to see some sort of written, paper-pencil, product to go with an assigned grade. Especially for students who are receiving IEPs, or students that are being considered for IEP testing. It is great to be able to tailor a worksheet or puzzle to my classroom's needs.
2. Desktop Publishing Software- At my school every teacher sends home a weekly newsletter. Our newsletter tells of the goings-on in our classroom, things that are coming up, dates to remember, etc... Desktop Publishing Software would be a great way to make the weekly newsletter more appealing for parents to read. Especially since it could be organized in a consistent format parents would know exactly where to look for field trip and academic information.
3. Graphic Document Makers- To make certificates and awards for students at the end of teh school year for Kindergarten graduation. Not only will they get a "diploma" but also give awards to each student for a character trait that they have portrayed throughout the school year. It would be neat to allow them to make awards for someone else in the classroom.
