Spring Break is getting close! Next week would be a wonderful time to take your class on a field trip!!!!
With our small groups, VR headsets would be a great activity to bring learning to life. (Yes, we will have to sanitize them after each use.) As you are planning your lessons for next week, book a time with myself or Mrs. Harkey to check out the headsets for your students. We have tons of adventures that will help you develop your students' schema!
Remember schema plays a HUGE role in making inferences and that reading strategy supports our priority standards!
Check out this video all about inferences!
Our Park View PTO was able to purchase 2 class sets of VR heads sets. They are located in our media center and are ready to be checked out! Here is a quick refresher!
What is Virtual Reality?
What is Google Expeditions?
Check out this LIST of Google Expeditions created by MGSD! When planning your expedition think carefully about your science and social studies standards.
Use Command F to search for a specific topic. Scroll through the green highlighted expeditions and choose one that will fit your needs.
How do you check out VR for your class?
- Simple head to our Park View Prime and scroll to slide 48. There you can check out a class set or a small group set of 10.
- Be sure to book a time with your IC if you need support.
- Head to the library and make sure that the tablets and VR headsets are charged the NIGHT before! It is SIMPLE! Just plug them in.
(Mrs. Schroeder or Mrs. Harkey can help you with this!)
VR is a perfect opportunity to bring learning to life!
