QR Codes with Sight Words and Vocabulary Words

I enjoyed working with the QR codes in our Web 2.0 class.  I can see how it could be a tool for engaging students in the classroom.  Using the SAMR Model, I would categorize it as augmentation since the task hasn't really been altered by the technology.

I created a couple of different QR code activities.  The first was a sheet for sight words.  I used vocaroo.com to create a recording.  It allowed the recording to be saved as a QR code.  I then copied the created image and put it in a word document.  Students practicing their sight words could click on the codes to see if they have mastered a word list. I'm not sure if I would actually use this in the classroom, but there may be other options for recordings I haven't considered.

The second activity involved vocabulary words.  I selected a group of vocabulary words from our Reading Street series and used those to create a classroom scavenger hunt.  The definitions to vocabulary words were listed on a sheet.  Students should match the definition to the QR code containing that word.
