Clicker 5
Clicker 5 allows students to use pictures and symbols to create and complete sentences. This program provides grids of words for students and also allows them to create their own words in the grid. The program will read the words in the grid out loud to the student. Storybooks can be created by the teacher or student to further their understanding about a topic or to practice their reading skills. In the storybooks students can click on words to hear them or have the whole sentence read to them. At the end of the book they can review what the images in the book were by clicking on them to hear the objects name. By allowing the students to engage in a multifaceted reading and writing program such as this they are more likely to make connections to the words and topics they are learning.
How To Use In The Classroom:
Clicker 5 would be a great way for students to practice the information that they have learned before assessing what they know. This would allow them to have some trial and error opportunities. The teacher can create the activity to reflect exactly what she would like to touch on in the lesson. Clicker 5 can also be used as a whole class on the smartboard
