Today we were introduced to two websites from Calla. Delicious - http://delicious.com/ and Voki - http://www.voki.com/. Thanks for doing this Calla! Delicious is a great site to always have your favorite bookmarks, but also to share the wonderful resources you discover with your friends and colleagues. The "tag" feature is pretty neat too!
Next, Ross showed us http://www.bitstrips.com/ and we had time to play with a cartoon, and in many cases, create a comic strip that CADRE Teachers can use to supplement a lesson. There were many good conversations about how this could be used to facilitate learning and we believe the good ideas will just keep coming.
Last, we conducted a Gallery Walk that was used to jump start both ideas and conversation around the "Choice Projects" We decided that these will have very loose parameters (Stretch your learning, includes an instructional connection, transferable) and that you will be creating your own assessment tool for your choice project. We will give more information about this next Monday.
Thanks for your patience, questions, participation, idea generating, etc.! You are awesome!
Skip and Ross
