Tech Tool of the Month
Screentcastify is a screen recording tool. This tool allows you to record what is happening on your screen as well as your voice (and a webcam of you in the bottom corner if you wish). This is a great tool for recording audio for an activity or recording directions on how to use an online tool. Students can also use this to explain their thinking.
Student Example: 5th grade student explaining multiplication (This is only viewable if you log in with a Ferry Farm Google account)
Playlist Example: Sarah Schroeder used screencastify to record her voice reading the text on slides for students.
