Week 1: Wordle
This is the text from the CA state standard for first grade Mathematics, Number Sense. It's interesting to see what words are given prominence in the Wordle.



Week 2: Voice Thread I would use this particular voice thread as a "center" in my classroom. I would tell them about the parade that this picture was taken at, ask the students to tell me about a time they had been to a parade, and then tell me three adjectives to describe the picture that I have posted. I like that they can tell me an adjective that they may not be able to spell by typing but may know. I have 1st graders.

Week 3:Story Bird I loved the beautiful artwork that was available for the stories although I had trouble with choosing pictures! I couldn't get different artwork to appear after I had selected a specific tag or artist. I went back to the tutorial and it showed a tab for theme down at the bottom which my Storybird screen did not have. I think I just need additional time to play with this tool to discover its functions. I think students would love to see their stories come to life in a professional looking book. media type="custom" key="10138063"

Week 5: Blogs Am in the process of figuring out the blog platform I want to use. This is really a giant task for me and I think it should have been the first one we did. Difficult to complete in a couple days. Since the wiki will remain open, I will post the link when I have it completed. Most likely beginning of next week.
