Voice recorder sight word matching

Submitted by Pamela Keegan (10-10-2012)

Voice Recording Modules found on Ebay

 Voice recording modules like these http://www.teaching.com.au/product?KEY_ITEM=TTS551&KEY_ALIAS=TTS551 are great for many different activities in the classroom.

One idea is to record sight words or phrases onto different modules and have matching sight word/phrase cards.

All the child has to do is press the module to hear the spoken word/phrase and then match them up with the corresponding card. If you want this activity to be independent you could have a coloured sticker on the backs of the cards/modules so the student can self correct their work.

I purchased plain coloured voice recording modules for around $4 each on ebay. They can be recorded over hundreds of times and are so versatile!

  • One of the best ways to find children\'s strengths is to ask the other children. If you play the \"hot seat game\", where you ask the children to describe another, with no name given, just good things about them, you often learn all sorts of things that you didn\'t know were happening. Also I often get the child with a particular \"strength\" to go off and assist a buddy who needs help along those lines- makes for a very interesting conversation. After a while, everyone knows that ***** is good at blending, so they go and ask for help. Makes lots of smiles all over. what a clever woman you are to ask for strengths, when you yourself are feeling a little low. You need your own magic stick. It\'s one of those wands with glitter inside, when you shake it, you see the glitter feel happy and smile. Holding this stick many of my children have found the answer using the magic from the stick. Well done. Barbara.
