Tool 7

This was so much fun ... I've always wanted to know how to do this. I had prepared a ppt and wanted it to run like a movie with music, etc. So now it will ...

This could be a great tool to capture student learning (i.e. use flip camera to photo/video students dramatizing stories) and then turn it in to a movie or photo story they can then read on the iTouch.

Tool 6

I think one way wikis could be used by students is to continue stories. Maybe start a repeatable/predictable story that students know and then let them create other lines/pages for the story. Perhaps teams could use wikis for planning lessons and committees for planning upcoming events, etc.

Tool 5

I love being able to organize by tags favorite and frequently visited sites in one place. This will make it easier/quicker to access in the future.

I joined Diigo and found these 2 new sites:
1. National Center on Response to Intervention (http://www.rti4.success.org/)
2. PreK - K (www.pre-kpages.com) (Note: the technology tab on the left has ideas for using flip cameras, ipods, Elmos, etc in PK)

Tool 4

I liked Google Docs. I drafted a color coded meeting calendar for the 2010-2011 school year. We can share it with staff. Google Reader can help keep up to date with new info. Happy July 4th Everyone!

Tool 2

Greetings Everyone! I'm glad we're all safe from Alex - a lot of rain ... good time to stay in and blog!

I think the PLN will add a reflective dimension to the way we share information with each other. The sans folder has been a great place to post information/strategies for networking and sharing with each other. The addition of the blog will allow anytime/anywhere access to "pick each other's brain" about implementation experiences and suggestions.

I will add these 5 to comments: Spring Daffodils, Baby Goat, Rainbow Ray, 4foru-jimr, Rainy Midnight.
