A nice break, but back to work

Truthfully, I am having a hard time getting back into the swing of things!  The two week break has been very nice.  I am officially done with the school year and starting to enjoy my summer vacation.  I almost forgot I had homework to do..... until now!

I enjoyed looking at the videos on Edutopia.  I am looking forward to playing around with the site some more to see what else is out there!  I also enjoyed putting together my google calendar.  I have been meaning to join the Google calendar clan, but have yet to bite the bullet.  It was really easy to use and was great that I could send share it with others.  I sent my calendar to my mom so she could know when I am around :-)

I took a look at two videos on the intime site.  Both were videos on reading activities that involved technology.  I think that this could be a really useful site if it had more videos available.  I didn't really find any that would be useful for me.  The few videos I watched had great ideas and used software that looked useful, but not something I have access to.  If more teachers keep adding to this site I could see where I would use it frequently.  I will have to look into adding to it myself!!

Well my homework is done for the week!  Time to relax and enjoy a few relaxing days!

  1. Welcome back, though it is a rude awakening. Edutopia will probably be emphasized in a later course, but it offers a good introduction to project-based learning, and offers some solid resources.
