2. Describe the tool.

3. What content area would you use the tool?
  I would use this tool mainly for the math content area.

4. Briefly describe a lesson in which you would implement the tool.
  I would allow students to access a game of choosing and begin to play. I would allow them to play for a set period of time and then have an open discussion/Q&A about the game. I would later quiz them to see if they learned the content of the game.

5. What do you need to consider before using the tool in a classroom?

  If the tool is something that applies to the curriculum and if it will be beneficial to the children of the class.
