Clipping Resources Using Educlipper

As I was curating my eduClipper board I started to realize how easy it would be to provide my students with various ways of learning their content to meet their diverse learning styles. I usually post links for research on my Symbaloo page but eduClipper is a great way to keep a myriad of resources in one easily accessible place. I chose to create a board for the Solar System because I have students research a planet in conjunction with the Solar System unit they embark upon in their homerooms. I typically just provide 3 websites for researching, but with eduClipper I was able to also add videos and infographics as well as interactive games. I even added a copy of their assignment! As my 4th graders went through this project last year, certain students struggled with finding particular information for their project within all the extra data provided on the website. Using the videos and infographics, in addition to the websites, I know there will be students who will flourish with this assignment that may not have previously. Adding in games was something I thought of along the way. The games are a way for students to apply their understanding after their assignment is completed as well as a way to help the early finishers have something educational to complete.
