Activity #3-Storybird

I thought storybird was interesting.  I did find it hard to have to adjust the story to the pictures.  My brain wanted to write a story and then add pictures to go along with the story.  I thought this might be a good place for students to practice keyboarding skills and computer skills. I may even use it for lesson. But,  I am not sure I would use it as a place to teach how to write a story.

Activity #2

I just created my first Prezi.  It was much easier than I thought.  I would love to take the time to create some additional Prezis for different lessons. I didn't think the title would show up on top of the Prezi.  I will have to figure out how to move this.

How many body parts does an insect have?

•  This blog could be useful in my classroom because I could already have my assignments and videos ready to go when I need them.    Also, students that missed a lesson could be caught up easily at home or during the school day.
•   I like the fact that is was created my a teacher and it seems very straight forward to use.
