The tool I used for this activity is called Kidspiration. Kidspiration is tool that can be used for many activities. You can use this tool to make hand outs for your students or even work sheets. This tool can also be used directly by the student, for example instead of printing off a work sheet the student can go directly on to Kidspiration and fill out the the activity and submit it to you online or however you choose.

The content eploration used in this activity is open-ended because it is helping the student problem solve. In this acitivity say the student is having trouble writing a short poem this tool helps them to explore their options and guide them to a short poem idea. This activity also can help the student to explore and understand different poem structures. This tool is also covering the content area of poem writing.

This tool is great tool for elementary education students for many reasons. This tool can help kids stay interactive in their learning by keeping them interested. If the students are directly filling out or playing with Kidspiration they are going to be more excited to learn rather than just doing it on paper or reading it from a text book. This tool is also a plus for elementary education students because the page is very eye catching. Younger students often get bored with lots of words or plain black and white, but with this tool is different. In Kidspiration there is lots of color and few words making it more eye cathing to them and making them more curious to learn.
