Vocabulary Voki

Other geometry teachers at PVHS are creating word walls in their classrooms in order to help students retain the meanings of the different terms. My class is trying out the Voki character options for creating an electronic word window. If you would like to watch our progress, please visit us. In the words of a student as he expressed his desire to begin this project, "I am pumped!" I think it is going to be great.

I think that is a great idea! Will the students be able to access the electronic work wall in your classroom?"

How fun! How did you create your page? Now I see why you were trying to lose the faceplates. FYI, the voki on the left has lost its message.

The Geometry Vocabulary Voki's are a great idea. With only one minute of voice time with a Voki; what a great tool to utilize for students to create many Voki's with important messages that relate to the same lesson.

Academic vocabulary is so important. Using a voki would be a hook for students and hopefully provide a different strategy for engaging with vocabulary. I'd be interested to read updates of this unique idea.
