I think that videos in the classroom are a great idea. There are a lot of visual learners in the world and videos help them to learn. A website like YouTube is great for compiling videos together. You could even make a playlist so that the videos you are showing are all ready to go. I had fun finding a video to post here. I chose the video because it was one that I had viewed earlier in the semester. I wanted to use it in my lesson because it was good for teaching children the parts of the plant. However it was too childish for the grade I was teaching. It was easy to go back and find this video though. You tube allows for you to type in what ever you are searching for and use it. You tube is pretty good about making sure that everything is in order legally as well. If not they will take the video down.
Here is another site I found that was great for it videos. Although I didn’t find as much as YouTube it was a great tool. I liked this site because like you tube it was easy to navigate through and find what I was looking for so here is the link. And I hope you guys like it to.
