I didn't realize how many videos were available on Algebra through YouTube and TeacherTube. In YouTube I found some fun algebra songs on slope and on number types. On TeacherTube I looked at videos on exponents and adding negative numbers. I can easily see using these short clips to summarize the material presented at the end of the lesson. Having an alternate format or way to explain things can be incredible effective. Also it breaks up the class when it is not just my voice or the voice from Holt on line explaining things. It will take time to find and preview the ones that would work best with each lesson.
