Chapter Seven
There was a lot of software’s that can be used in our future classroom. PowerPoint is great software to use for projects. Microsoft can help kids learn how to write properly. Excel can be math lesson for the whole class. All of these software’s can be helpful in the classroom.
PowerPoint is used a lot more than we think in school. It’s the most popular for a research project. Science and history are perfect for a PowerPoint project. If the student has to do a project over someone in history they can go slide to slide presenting it. Science for example could be doing research on certain butterflies. A student could express themselves by doing a PowerPoint over themselves so the whole class could get to know them better in the first week of school.
Microsoft is a great way for students to learn how to write letters. The class could do pen pals to another school, of the same grade. It teaches them correct grammar. English is a very hard subject to understand and many students need help with it. With Microsoft it can show them what they are misspelling and when a sentence is not correctly worded. Students could even learn how to create an advertisement for; let’s say a bake sale coming up at their school.
Speaking of bake sales, excel would be perfect for them to learn how to keep track of the class money and how much each student has sold in the bake sale. Excel is great way to keep track of the entire student’s parent’s emergency information. Also, keeping track of how much has been spent for the classroom. It can even work for all the students’ grades. This can even help in special education when each teacher’s assistant needs to keep track of the student work, even the students behavior and what they progressing in or not progressing in.
All of those software’s can help out in any type of class room. These programs can help keep everyone organized which students need some help with. Each child needs learn these programs as soon as the can, so they are prepared for the next grade level.
