Great ways to us YouTube in your classroom!

Need an Idea for using YouTube in the classroom... try one of these:

o Teachers can identify videos that will help students practice grammar or vocabulary that were presented in class. Teachers can e-mail links to each student.
           o Teachers can post YouTube links to a teacher web site or blog, and students can click on the links for practice.
           o YouTube can be used as a media library. Teachers can collect links for dictations, “new vocabulary” videos, conversation practice, pronunciation practice, and grammar review.
            o Teachers can assign homework. (Imagine: a teacher can video record the homework assignment and post it to YouTube, and students can watch the instructions!) (71).


It's a great way to communicate with others around the world!
