Technology Tuesday Postponed

Unfortunately I have to postpone the "Technology Tuesday" tutorial this week.  I'm feeling a bit under the weather and my sinus headache is really making looking at the computer difficult!

I'm going to extend the poll... but it's been really temperamental this week!  I know a number of votes were lost (I checked earlier in the week and it had 7 votes, then it reset and 5 other people voted, then it reset again and now it only has 3 votes... ugh!)  I hosted the poll through another site (Poll Daddy), which is known to be more reliable... be sure to vote again!

I Heart Rhinos

Image
I got this email today, and I like rhinos, so I'm spreading the word. They have an option to donate as little as $8 a month, plus there's options to donate one time, and you can use PayPal, your checking account, or a credit card. PLUS when you donate money, some employers will match or double the amount you donate. You've probably heard the grim report already: An astonishing 333 rhinos were killed illegally in South Africa in 2010 --the highest rate ever experienced in the country. Ten of these were critically endangered black rhinos, of which only about 3,500 individuals still remain. Help WWF protect rhinos and other wildlife and habitats around the world from threats such as poaching--make a monthly donation today .

The recent rhino crime wave is largely due to a...

Teaching Phonemic Awareness with Sight Words

Image
I have been meaning to make these activities for a while and I finally had the time to do it!  Every time I teach my class a new sight words, we always look at the phonemic sounds that go into it.  I decided to make task cards for a center game that will be sure to help reinforce the phonics that go into the sight words!  I made two sets of cards: pre-primer words and primer words. I can't wait to use this lesson plan with my Kindergarten students tomorrow!

101 Movies You Must See Before You Die

On the internet, I found a list of the 1001 Movies You Must See Before You Die. It was a very long list. I went through it, but I hadn't seen that many movies before 1950, and it had several movies I suspect were fake. So then I found the list 101 Movies You Must See Before You Die, and I've seen 93 of them. What does that prove? That I watch a lot of movies.
