Here is the second giveaway provided by Learning Resources. It is for their HearAll Assessment Recorder.
Please note again that even though Learning Resources has provided me with a HearAll to review, the opinions listed are all from me!
The HearALL is a recording device that has not 1, or 2, or 3....but actually 4 microphones. How cool is that? Each of the four corners has a microphone built right into it!! (Can you see them in the picture below?)

Here are the points I love about the HearAll:
~ All you have to do is place it down on the table, turn it on, and it records the voices heard around it! The kids do not have to worry about how close it is to their mouths, holding in a button, or anything at all about the recorder. This is great for me since I use it to record my students as they read and it allows them to focus solely on their reading and not the device.

~ The HearAll does not require batteries. It charges right up through your USB port on your computer!
~ The buttons are pretty easy to use. I did get a little confused a few times, but was able to easily figure out what I needed to do.
~ You can record multiple recordings!
One thing I want to note is that I work with small groups of children outside of a larger classroom setting, so I am not sure how much background noise it picks up, if any at all.
This is another tool from Learning Resources that can be used in so many ways!

ReplyDeleteNeed this for my kids. Would use it in so many ways.
ReplyDeleteI would use it for many things, including recording students reading, using it for listening stations (maybe record myself or someone else reading a story). Oh I hope I win! I have been trying for about 2 years and haven't won any giveaways! I'm crossing my fingers!

As a SAHM with a boy entering K I will use it to reinforce the phonics and reading fluency that my son has already mastered.

I would have kids in my class record themselves reading aloud and then play it back so they can hear what they sound like. It would be a great way to follow up a lesson on fluency.

This would be great for my independent reading contracts--students would have an option to record themselves reading and then be able to listen to themselves.
ReplyDeleteThis would be very useful for listening to conversations that are taking place during literature circles.
ReplyDeleteI would record students reading stories, perhaps for a fluency assessment (take the pressure off some kids). It would be fun to have students listen to their peers or me reading stories at a listening center.
ReplyDeleteGreat giveaway! Thanks for the chance,
Caterina
This would be great for me in Title 1 and also classroom use :-)
ReplyDeleteI am going to be a first year teacher and I would love to have this in my classroom! :)
ReplyDeleteMan I'd love to win one of those little buggers! I could use it for assessment purposes; to motivate my students to read; and as others have suggested, it would be a super tool to integrate into a fluency activity! Thanks for the giveaway opportunity!

Great for children to practice reading into and then listen to themselves back for fluency practice.
ReplyDeleteThis would make it easy to assess our students through small group games and reading.
ReplyDeleteFantastic tool for retelling
ReplyDeleteI would definitely use this for fluency!! Would love to have one of these!

I would use this for students to record themselves reading and listen back to check their own fluency as well as to have them read their writings aloud. meredith.mitchell@nhcs.net
ReplyDeleteI would use the recorder to help increase my students reading fluency during reading centers!!
ReplyDeletebl3982@yahoo.com
I would love to use this during some literacy centers to be able to hear the students later since I'd be with other groups!
ReplyDeleteI would love to use it to track the student's reading fluency through the school year, and to send a file home with the parents at the end showing the students' growth!
ReplyDeleteMiss A
I would love to use this at my fluency center to record student reading. What a great tool!

I think it would really help my daughter with her speech. And my son could use it to reherse his speeches for school.
ReplyDeleteThis sounds like such a great tool- I think it would be great to record my ELD kids then have them listen to it to see if they can tell when they re speaking correctly or not

Fluency for sure, and also to hear what small groups are doing when they're not with me. I like the idea of being able to leave my own recordings at centers as well.
ReplyDeletezputty@gmail.com
I would use it for progress monitoring of tracking fluency, self corrections, reading with expression, etc. the list goes on!! I have Talk Points and love leaving directions to the students on those!!

I would use this so the kids could hear themselves read and I would use it for running records.
ReplyDeletelraines78@gmail
I would love to win this so kids can read to a partner and I can listen to it later to do a running record or play back for the child to hear in a confernence.
ReplyDeleteI would love to put this in the retelling center to hear what they are saying!
ReplyDeleteI would love to win as well :)

Would love to have for working on fluency!
ReplyDeleteI think this would be such a great tool for allowing parents and the children to hear their reading. They could listen for roadblocks to fluency and record their fluent readings for other students to hear during Listening to Reading.

I've been wanting one all year. I would use this for fluency checks and to let the students hear their published writings.
ReplyDeletePick Me!

This would be soooo helpful with the students I tutor! Not only would it help me when assessing their sight word vocabulary (I could go back to listen to what they say and then mark my checklist), it would also help them to listen to themselves read aloud. This would be great for tracking their fluency progress. I would LOVE to have one of these!!!
ReplyDeleteThat looks like an awesome tool with so many uses, especially for fluency which I need to do more with!
