Teaching With Digital Images/Videos

Teaching with digital images and videos really pull children into a lesson. Visual learners benefit greatly from the images and videos that are shown. When related to lesson plans videos can help create a deeper understanding of what it is that children are actually learning about. Also they are fun. Kids like to watch videos even if they are short clips or songs about science, they help and they are fun. A catchy song about the path that blood takes through our arteries can really help students to remember for a test. A video that displays mitosis can also help kids to visualize the process instead of a teachers dipiction with chalk.
