The //PreKindergarten Inclusion: As seen through the world of ELMO// PowerPoint provides the viewer with a quick glimpse of different learning activities that occur in a PreKindergarten Inclusion classroom. The specific learning concepts that are highlighted in this PowerPoint are math, science and literacy. The PowerPoint also shows how the ELMO can be used alongside another piece of technology equipment, the SmartBoard, to further enhance a lesson.

Reflection: As a teacher who already uses technology in the classroom, having the ELMO document camera allows me to open up additional opportunities to teach concepts in a different way. Having my ELMO document camera set up and ready to use at all times allows me to follow the Universal Design for Learning approach. I believe that this approach is necessary for all classrooms but especially in a PreKindergarten inclusion classroom where the rate of learning and the way in which each child learns is very different.
