Students can sign up using their school Google account, presentations can be emailed to their teacher, and work can be done in collaborative teams.</span><br />

While the Ozobots can be used with Grade 1's and older, it is recommended that OzoBlockly be used with Grade 2 and higher. It is strongly suggested that students have completed at least some levels of Hour of Code activities before using OzoBlockly with OzoBots.<br />
<br />
Sample Activity:<br />
<br />
Have students construct their own maze out of items like Lego or straws or hand drawn on large sheets of paper. Determine what codes have to be used to navigate their OzoBot successfully through the maze.<br />

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><b><span style="color: blue;"><br /></span></b></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><b><span style="color: red;"><a href="https://bookcreator.com/" target="_blank">Book Creator</a></span><span style="color: blue;"> </span></b>is the number one app for engaging students, encouraging creativity, and giving them a voice! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">This application allows students to share their class research, videos, pictures, artwork, writing, and audio recordings in an innovative and easy to use way. Students of all ages will be able to easily use this app on a Chromebook, iPad and any other device that has a Chrome browser.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">The app allows for collaboration and sharing, and publishing their work to show their classmates, teachers and family. They can even publish to iBooks if they wish!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">From the cool comic book templates and stickers, to a multitude of fonts, students are only limited by their imaginations. They can make multiple books with unlimited pages in their quest to demonstrate their learning or show off their work. By adding video and audio, a multimedia book is the result that can be shared with people of all ages. There is also the capacity to add links for accessibility to open their book up to an audience that may be challenged in some capacity.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">These keepsake books can be printed, shared, stored, saved and read online. Students as young as Kindergarten can be successful at making and publishing their own books in a professional manner. By adding their voice, they can explain their thoughts and read their own words.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Suggestions for student and teacher use:</span><br />
<br />
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">any grade level of story writing - can add artwork, captured photos or creative commons photos, students can record themselves reading their work</span></li>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">There is an excellent tool added to your Google Drive this week - it is called <span style="color: red;">Google My Maps</span>. It is very similar to the regular Google Maps, but is now integrated into your Drive. It also cooperates nicely with Google Forms as well - you can collect map data and have it plotted for you. Any grade level can easily use this application.</span></div>

<div class="gmail_default" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">In your Google Drive, press <b><span style="color: #9900ff;">New</span></b>, then scroll down the list until you see <span style="color: #9900ff;"><b>Google</b> <b>My Maps</b></span>. You can generate custom maps that outline the story line of a novel, or events that took place during World War II...etc. All maps are saved in your Google Drive and can be shared with anyone.</span></div>

<div class="gmail_default" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">You can integrate data collected in a Google Form (survey) to be seamlessly added to your map. In the simple example below, the survey asked students to enter their favourite vacation spot. The spreadsheet generated from the survey is imported into My Maps and placed automatically on the map. There you can share the map with students and they can add photos to their place marker. The end result is a tour of these places.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">This is a very interesting site full of archived photos from around the world. Just search for a location, and select an archived photo you would like to view. You can look at the photo information or <u>select Google Street View</u> to access a slide that will overlay the photo on top of the current Google Maps view. You can fade in and out of the archived photo to see which buildings used to be in that spot. Some cities do not have many photos as this app relies on people uploading their own photos into the website.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"> You are also able to use a magnifying lens to zoom in on the photo itself.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">What a great social studies project this would make for those grades studying local communities! Or what a great project for someone who has access to archived community photos.</span><br />

It is a simple alternative that offers some assistance to students who struggle with spelling and word completion when they type. It would be most beneficial for students to use at home where they don't have accessibility to Read & Write Gold.<br />
<br />
"Dicom Portable is a word completion program designed to make it easier
to type words with fewer keystrokes in every app. It runs from the
system tray and pops up word options after a configurable number of
keystrokes. It can also be adapted with your own word selections for
programming and other tasks."<br />

"Dicom Portable allows you to complete words in fewer keystrokes making
it a valuable tool for users with motor and coordination impairments.
It includes English and French dictionaries of words and you can add
your own words using the configuration icon in the system tray. After
entering a few characters, a list of word options pops up with the
ability to hit F1 to F10 to select the appropriate word. The app can
also be used for your own dictionaries for programming and other
subjects. The app will appear in French or English to match the
PortableApps.com Platform. When used alone, you can switch languages by
editing the Data\settings\DicomPortableSettings.ini file and setting
Language= to English or French"</div>

The instructions are simple: Download the program and install the folder to a student's desktop or portable flash drive which allows it portability to be used outside the school environment. Contained in the folder is the "executable" file that is clicked on and will allow the program to run with applications that require student typing. </div>
