Flip Cameras

Another wonderful technology tool is the flip cameras. These small video cameras have one-button operation, which makes it easy for students and teachers alike to operate. Cost of these cameras is relatively low compared to most technology that is used in the classroom.  One button to start/stop will catch all the action in the classroom. One day students may record a reader’s theater to post on the classroom website. Another day may bring two students showcasing their understanding of problem solving in math by creating a rap. While yet on another, a teacher can record the fluency of a child at specific points in the school year to document reading growth throughout the year to place in a digital portfolio.
