Instructional Inspiration
|
As much as we'd all love to get outside and celebrate nature and the changing seasons, sometimes the weather doesn't cooperate. April is known for its heavy showers. Don't worry though, MyVRSpot is the perfect platform to learn all about nature, plants, climate, and the earth even when you're stuck inside! Click on the links below to see some examples of what you can do with our creative and instructional tools. We've got a SmartSpot video quiz, a multimedia VRS assignment, a fun worksheet created using our Image Creator, and finally, a MediaSpot project that will surely keep your students engaged and learning.

How Videos Support Reading Comprehension
|
The American Pediatrics Association reports that reading when young – even infants being read to by their parents – stimulates brain development that builds language, literacy, and a child’s motivation to learn. In addition, student literacy builds self-esteem, improved concentration, critical and analytical skills, stronger memory, and expanded vocabulary. It's safe to say that reading is important!
