final reflection

I liked learning about new technology out there. I would have to try next year to incorporate some of the things I learned into my teaching. Thanks Sara for putting this together!

comic websites

www.makebeliefscomix.com www.pixton.com www.toondoo.com I have used all of these, plus have given them out to my comic book club. I have even introduced it to some students that had to make a book for a content area class.

Prezi

I like the idea behind Prezis - but I would have to play with it for awhile to really find it affective for Strategies. I like the fact that you can zoom in when you really want the students to pay attention to something, so when teaching the mnemonics you can zoom in and out.

Voice Thread

I was thinking that I could use this for the visual imagery strategy. The students can describe the scene using their own words. The other students then can add to it.
