final blog!

So when we first were told we had to blog I was a little annoyed. I didn't really want to share my life with anyone on the internet. After actually doing it though I realized that I enjoy it. I may even keep up with following other blogs! It is such a good way to communicate with other teachers and see what other classes are doing. I really enjoyed looking at things that teachers are doing to adapt to this century and the ever changing technology!

teachers and blogs

When first hearing about Kathy Cassidy's blog, where she puts her students in videos on it, I was a little concerned. After reading it the past few weeks I have realized how cool it really is. I like the fact that her class is able to communicate and do things with other schools and classes all over the United States and even the World. I would enjoy to do something like this with my students when I become a teacher! I just wonder how the parents feel with their children being on the internet for all to see. I think its a good idea and all, but I dont want the world watching my child. Its sad but there are some creeps out there...

popcorn and cell phones :(

so i'm a little upset that this fun technology video is not true, as you can see by my last weeks post, ellen gave me some websites to look at... the videos she posted show how the cell phone popcorn popping trick is not true. I don't know if I really thought it was true or just that I wanted it to be true, but now that i know it doesn't really work i'm sad. on the other side though, i am kinda glad because if the radio waves can pop popcorn what is it doing to my brain?!?!
