Happenings in the Resource Room
The year has moved by quickly in the resource room. The students
have used many different activities to reinforce the skills they
have learned in the regular classroom. Some of the activities or
games that they have enjoyed are bingo, jeopardy, and
four-in-a-row. By playing these games the students not only worked
on academics but social skills as well. Some students read and did
various activities with library books to help them on reading
skills. They read books from the Magic Tree House series to
books about kites. They made kites, puzzles, or just did basic
comprehension questions over the book. Other students had a new
opportunity to do class work with a new computer program, Odyssey.
The program has lessons for the students to work through and then
they are tested over the material to see what they have learned. So
even though the year moved by quickly, the students in the resource
room not only learned to have fun but had fun learning.
