Technology: How does it help readers? In this age there are many technological tools available for students to use and demonstrate their reading comprehension. Throughout this program I have been able to keep abreast of the most current Web 2.0 tools. These tools are extremely user friendly. Below are listed a few of the 21st Century tools I have used successfully in either my third or fourth grade classrooms. These tools increased the time in text which in turn increased the student's reading achievement. Students need to fully comprehend the text to be able to express it to someone else.
While completing these projects the students needed to constantly review the text used. This increase of time in text heightened the student's comprehension and reading achievement. |
