It was gorgeous up there. I will share a FLIP video with you soon. We talked alot about Web 2.0 programs and how social networking is changing the expectations our students bring with them to school.

Thursday

Today was a good day. We transfered our story board to small white boards that I have and took them to the computer lab. We starred parts of our storyboard we thought should have text or audio commentary, then we began to type. For two students this was again awesome. They got down to work, were on task, and wrote more than they ever had before in about half the time. One student struggled, but I wasn't too surprised by this, he is a perfectionist and struggled with what to do.

Working… Continue

Creating a tour of our school with summer school students

I am so lucky to have taken Meg's class last week. I am teaching summer school and I now can implement the ideas immediately with my students.

We are going to make a movie tour of our school for new students. I am not sure if it will ever get used, but I don't really care, this is too fun.

I started today asking the kids what kind of movie they wanted to make ( I love giving kids choices). We talked about acting out a scene from Mouse and the Motorcycle, which we are r… Continue

Trial post and my website.

Hello everyone. I am writing this as a trial to see how it works. I am specifically wondering if, after it's posted will it appear in my own network I created or only here.

But I am also looking for some reviewers. I am laying the foundations my classroom websites. This is my third website I have ever created and, if you have ever created one before, you know that a lot of forethought can safe so much time later. So, help me out. Let me know what you think of:

Reflections Day 3

A day of a lot of "learning" or at least searching for it. Jennifer is a great partner to be working with. I do think if we ever get a piece of software to do the green screen thing, we have a good idea that will be very cross curricular and fun on top of it. Continue

First Day

The tech camp was great today. We were able to work at our own pace and still learn a great deal. I really like the social networking page you set up for us on ning. I am very interested in planning my curriculum map for the school year. I have used the template that you set up for my curriculum map. I felt I learned so much today and was still able to set up something that I can use for the school year.
