RSS - Back in the swing of things

I was reading the information from Polly about Thing 4 today and I am very excited to get started.  I know I need to find more time to check out the other blogs.  I found some great ideas from checking out the blogs before the holiday break.  One idea is keeping a jar of positive comments on my circulation desk.  Students can take one when they need one.  Love that idea.  I am actually creating a blog with my Mother and 8 year old daughter.  We are creating a food blog.  Very excited.  Ava will be writing her own articles.  She is really looking forward to it.  Ava has experience blogging with her third grade teacher.  I am spending 30 minutes this evening reviewing blogs.  Off to get started. 

Happy Reading and Blogging!!

StoryBird

My daughter and I created this StoryBird together.  I had such a great time working on this with her.  I shared this tool with my faculty and staff before break.  I am looking forward to using this with my students.  I haven't figured out which class or how I will use this tool but I plan on using it soon. 

Happy Reading and Blogging!!

Christmas Break!!!

It is time to get back to work.  I had a wonderful Christmas break.  I plan on doing some work this evening and creating a story to share on my blog.  I will also spend some time checking out my classmates blogs.  Happy New Year!!
