MeCorder Giveaway


Over the summer I was contacted by Learning Resources to review some of their items.  I decided to try out their MeCorder and I am loving it in my classroom!  (and so are my kids!!)

The Mecorder is easy to use and fun!  Two things that are essential in a K classroom!

All you have to do is charge it with your computer and you are ready to go!

My kids LOVED it! Surprised?  Of course not!  They can use it as a mini-video recorder.  Use it for

fluency, to increase engagement with routine activities like progress monitoring!

Another idea is to use it to record directions for stations.  Kids get to the station and press play to listen

to the directions for the activity.   The possibilities are endless!

Learning Resources was kind enough to offer one for a giveaway!!
Giveaway begins today and ends Thursday the 20th.  Enter to win!

  5. I teach Deaf/hard of Hearing students. This would be IDEAL for them! I could record their spelling words, vocabulary, the current literature story... the list goes on and on. CD players don't work for us... but this would!

  7. It would be great to record directions for work stations; maybe I wouldn't be interrupted as often during reading groups!

  22. This would be so great for progress monitoring, self monitoring, or giving to those little kiddos that can't quite sit during my quiet reading time. They seem more motivated to do well when they use my voice recorders. This would be great to keep 'em on task.
