I wanted to show the students how to write in cursive using technology. Again, as a whole class, I used a blank PowerPoint slide, the pen tool, and my mouse to try to carefully write each cursive letter. This was projected for the students to see but still not the best solution.
I wanted them to be able to go to a computer, click on a link, and be able to see me write a cursive letter so that they could model after it, replay it, and practice on their own. The idea was for this to become a meaningful center. I took a pen and my phone and recorded myself writing a letter. I then placed the video on Youtube and the students could view it on their own. This was a lot better but still not there yet!
