The next tool we are going to look at is “Doorway Online”. Doorway can be found at http://www.doorwayonline.org.uk/. Doorway is an online tool that looks at literacy, numbers, time, money and much more. It allows interactive learning with the students while providing visual and audio aids for them to learn and follow along with. One example of how this tool can be used in the classroom is for learning to write letters of the alphabet. The students can select which letters they want to learn how to write and they can follow along and use the program to also do it themselves. This tool is great because if you have students with a hearing impairment than they can read the instructions and follow along comfortably. It is also great because each student can learn at their own pace taking more or less time with certain letters or numbers. This tool can be used for elementary students in developing their basic skills such as numbers, letters, and telling time.
