RESOURCE SELECTED AND HOW IT WORKS WATCHKNOW AGE GROUP: ALL CONTENT AREA: ALL CONTENT THE EXAMPLE SELECTED IS USED TO PRESENT IDEAS TO STUDENTS THROUGH VIDEOS. KEY CONCEPTS IN VARIOUS CONTENT AREAS ARE ILLUSTRATED TO GRASP THE STUDENTS ATTENTION. ALSO, THIS RESOURCE IS AVAILABLE TO STUDENTS, PARENTS, AND TEACHERS FREE REQUIRING INTERNET ACCESS. CHILDREN CAN NAVIGATE THROUGH THIS EDUCATIONAL WEBSITE. THE VIDOES ON THE WEBSITE ARE THE HIGHEST RATED EDUCATIONAL MATERIAL EXAMINED BY TEACHERS.

KEY CONSIDERATIONS FOR THE CHECKPOINT HOW DOES THIS HELP LEARNERS MEET THE GOAL? WATCHKNOW IS AVAILABLE IN THREE DIFFERENT LANGUAGES SUCH AS SPANISH, THIS HELPS LEARNERS MEET THE GOAL BY ALIGNING WITH THE COMMON CORE STANDARDS. STUDENTS ARE ABLE TO WORK AT THEIR OWN PACE TO VIEW A VIDOE OF INTERESTED RELATED TO THE LEARNING CONTENT. HOW DOES THIS ACCOUNT FOR VARIABILITY OF ALL LEARNERS? THIS RESOURCE PROVIDES CHILDREN WITH A DIFFERENT WAY TO LEARN WHERE KEY CONCEPTS ARE ILLUSTRATED IN A NON-LINGUSTIC MANNER. IS THE INFORMATION ONLY PRESENTED IN ONE MEDIA (I.E., TEXT, VIDEO, ETC.)? INFORMATION PRESENTED IS PRESENTED IN VIDOE FORMAT TO COVER A WIDE RANGE OF MATERIAL TO ENGAGE LEARNERS.

HOW CAN I IMPLEMENT RESOURCE IN MY CLASSROOM THIS COULD BE USED EFFECTIVELY IN MY PRE-K CLASSROOM TO REACH ALL LEARNERS. FOR EXAMPLE, DEPENDING ON THE THEME OR STUDENTS OWN INTERESTS THEY CAN VIEW VARIOUS VIDOES ON TOPIC OF CHOICE. I FOUND SOME VIDOES THAT ARE SHORT AND LONG WHICH WILL DEPEND ON THE CHILDREN’S ATTENTION SPAN.
