Thing 14
I enjoyed several of the sites listed. The toondoo was a lot of fun. I had to laugh at some of the books people had made. How creative!
I also enjoyed looking at quizlet. Most of the items on that site were for older students.
Thing 12
BubbleShare: Share photos – Craft Ideas
I really enjoyed making this short slideshow. After I have gone through this process one time, I think it will make the next time much easier. I got hung up on some “small stuff” that really did not matter. I am glad I had the chance to do this…

Thing 7b
I have enjoyed reading many things from my google reader, however, I must admit sometimes I feel overwhelmed by the sheer number of feeds that are there. I especially enjoyed this one regarding some web-sites that this teacher had recommended to help reinforce the money concept. Since I teach money and help students learn to count money, I found several of these websites some that I will add to my favorites at school for my students to use. This one in particular, by the US Mint, was fun.
Thing 11
I enjoyed looking at flicker and it was really interesting to see all that is available out there. I think having access to so many photos will be an asset to teaching.

Thing 10
The creative commons is a wonderful idea. I know our media specialist is always helping us better understand copyrights involving print media, but this area of technology opens up many other copyright issues. I am so happy to know this exists. I do like to look at other teacher’s powerpoints and gain ideas and knowledge from those.
I must admit that I have never actually noticed the cc on web sites or images, but it is probably there and I haven’t noticed it.
