Ever have a great discussion in class and taken some really cool notes on the board only to have to erase the notes for the next class? Or, ever have a kid absent and then he can't get the notes from the other day because they were all generated from class discussion and other kids didn't take great notes?
Today we were doing a review of the novel Frankenstein and the kids had created visuals outlining key ideas, themes, conflicts etc.. and put them up on the big Post It notes. At the end of class I went around and took pictures of each of the pages and uploaded them to my website. I plan to make a folder for each class of the pictures so they have notes to refer to... I tried to e-mail them right away, but because the pictures take up so much memory, they took a long time to text and some kids didn't have the capability of getting photos through their texts.
I'm going to poll the kids to see who found this helpful. I have a feeling it will be a number of them!
