How do we distinquish letters and sounds?

Digital storytelling can be used by teachers and students. This tool is used to get the message across using any type of multimedia. For instance, slide share can be used to display pictures with some description. Voice threads are used to display pictures with audio and wording. You are able to comment on both forms of digital storytelling. These tools would be available to use with any subject.

You could teach a math problem using slide share by displaying each step of a math problem and describing each step with a few words. For science you or a student could use voice threads to explain a science project.

You would be able to use both forms of digital storytelling to teach a lesson. I am using slide share to display my slide show, which focuses on the topic, "How do you distinguish letters and sounds?" This unit focus on the English/Reading, Technology, and Social studies TEKS. I have integrated these all on to one slide show.

I am focusing on teachers a teacher's motivational project. I have organized a lesson plan which focus on my unit plan of "How do we distinguish letters and sounds?" The slide show displays on how teachers can use different tools to teach multi-curricular areas of the TEKS.

I love learning about all of the new tools and I want to keep learning more. It took me awhile to figure out how to make my slide show. I focused so much on the bigger picture. I don't know if that is a good thing. This assignment made me think and I think these forms of questions will make the student think too.
