Geneva+Addison



My name is Geneva Addison, and I am a senior at Clemson studying Special Education. I am from Charlotte NC and grew up right outside of Charlotte. I love to travel and visit new places. After graduating I would like to go on to teach resource on the secondary level. My goal is to be able to do art therapy with children that have special needs.

My thoughts on technology are that it can be very useful in a classroom but can't be the only form of instruction. My high school was not very up on technology and we never really used it. I have always had a computer with internet at house and have grown up using a computer and different forms of technology. I love my mac, and think its the best thing ever. I use it for all my photography I do. I also have a flickr to upload my pictures to share them.

My Wordle is from Goldilocks and the Bears. We read this book to help the kids learn how to find a book thats just right for them. They needed to find a book that wasn't to hard or too easy for them



Virtual Manipulative I used 2 different sites for my Virtual Manipulative my favorite site was the GE online white board. You can use this just like a normal white board and they have all the shapes you would need. I liked the grid option that you add too. The cool thing about this is you can email the board to different people.

My second math manipulative came from www.ct4me.net this site was nice because I just taught a lesson on congruent shapes. And the first day I want to show them lots of congruent shapes and this made it easy. The shapes are easy to move around and I had them make pairs of congruent shapes.
