Teaching us the act of spreading knowledge.

A teaching aid is something that helps a teacher to teach it might be a reference book.

1) Teaching aids are tools that classroom teachers use to help their students learn quickly and thoroughly.
2) A teaching aid can be as simple as a chalkboard or as complex as a computer program. 4) Teaching aids are crucial for educators as they are key in differentiating instruction for all types of learners.

3) Because every individual learns in a different way, teachers rely on these tools to explain concepts to students with a wide variety of learning needs.

Why its important??

Teaching aids are important in how well a student can learn. Teaching aids can assist students to learn and understand material faster and better. Some of these aids consist of, audio and/or visual aids and hands on aid.

Computers have become popular teaching aids, but overhead projectors still have a place in the classroom. A transparency is placed on the glass and the information on the transparency is projected onto a screen. An instructor can write the information directly onto the transparency. The transparency can also be fed into a laser printer so that information can be transferred onto the transparency from a computer.

List of Teaching Aids

Workbooks Specific grade and subject workbooks reinforce material or skills taught in class, such as handwriting, math and science, and language arts (spelling and reading). Workbooks provide effective review questions and test-preparation exercises, and may feature creative activities or informative vignettes that encourage further exploration of a topic or subject area. The School Zone Publishing Company offers workbooks for pre-K to sixthgrade students.

Printables

Membership or fee-based websites such as edHelper.com and TeAch-nology reinforce existing curriculum with printables--worksheets to download and print. Focusing on a particular theme or subject, printables can cover math facts, spelling exercises, mini history lessons, writing prompts, or reading and comprehension questions.

Games

Academic games provide an interactive way for students to learn and retain information in any subject, from math flash cards to Bingo spelling to history trivia games. Computer games are increasingly interactive and educational, and can match any child's academic skill level. Games such as Brain University and Britannica Brain Games Platinum can boost critical thinking, reasoning and cognitive development in students.

Posters and Bulletin Boards Posters and bulletin boards generally come in sets that reinforce learning material in a way that appeals to visual learners. Posters can also reinforce teacher expectations and rules, particularly for preK to fourth-grade students, providing behavioral incentives and setting academic goals. For older students, bulletin boards offer constant reminders of daily lessons and facts needed for tests.

Computer Software Technology plays a big role in reinforcing classroom lessons, and engages students as they learn. Academic software covers all subject areas and can automatically chart students progress, save their data and tailor lessons to their particular level until they are ready to move on.
