Description Students are able to review comparing numbers via technology to enhance learning. The lesson begins with a video link which reinforces the skills of greater than, less than and equal to. They then go onto completing a worksheet which was created in a survey format. Finally, students are able to discuss what they have learned, and if they learned anything new from the activity. Reflection Using wikis as a learning or reinforcement tool is a wonderful thing. I was overwhelmed at first but, once I got the hang of things it was a go! First of all my students were just excited to get on the computers in the lab. When they learned that it was created me, their eyes lit up. This was an exciting activity for all of us. Wikis are going to be a part of my classroom from now on.
