Elise Friedenheimer, RCOE, Appalachian State University
My concentration for Elementary Education is math.
I did my internship at Mable Elementary School in Zionville NC. I
went to the library to see what math video resources the school had.
I wanted to know the different videos that were offered to teachers to
teach math. I think that visual representation is important so that
is why I wanted to see what videos were available.
The list of videos is a resource to me as a teacher.
I will be able to use the math videos in my lessons to have a variety of
teaching strategies in my class. I realize that students have different
ways of learning and showing a video would be helpful for some of the students.
As a teacher I want to be resourceful. I would watch the videos and
see what kind of materials are in these videos and get ideas that I could
use in my lessons that I teach even though I am not going to show the video.
Competency 10.2 is getting a list of television
resources and their correlation to the appropriate grade level and curriculum.
I looked up the math resources that the school had. I could use these
videos to help teach a specific concept for a specific grade that I am
teaching that lesson in.
