Thing # 22

My Teacher Binder

My Teacher Binder, Educational Issues, and Student Assessments are my three binders. This could be used in the classroom to keep a handle on the various sources on the internet. Most of the websites that I could include will definitely be educational.

Thing # 21


Create your own video slideshow at animoto.com.


This Thing was a lot of fun and very easy to do!

Thing # 20

I love Youtube and use it almost every day. There is a vast amount of information on this site that you can find a video on just about any topic. I chose this video because it is informative about the famous Folger Library which known for Shakespearean studies. I could definitely show this video to my class.



This video would be great to share with my class!

Visit TeacherPop

Exploring TeacherPop was neat and interesting. It is basically like a mini version of Facebook for teachers and future teachers. While reading some of the comments, I saw a lot of what has been talked about in my education classes. This site will be very useful to me as a future teacher.


Gather was also cool to look at because it is a social networking site where the users mostly share news. This would be very helpful to me as a teacher to stay on top of current events.

My Facebook

It is important for educators to have a social networking site because it keeps them up-to-date with students, other teachers, parents, and even could be a good resource for help with lessons and activities. I like how on Facebook you can read posts from everyone to see what is going on. Also, there are groups that teachers can join that they might find helpful while in the classroom.

Thing # 17

I really like this website. It is very easy to use and would serve as a useful tool to help teachers be organized and have a handful of resources at his/her finger tips. I logged into delicious with my yahoo account and then created the URL address to my little corner of the site.

Link to my delicious site

This could definitely be used in the classroom because teachers can bookmark lesson plans, activities, interesting finds, and more onto this website. All of these resources would be helpful to the classroom.

Thing #16

My iGoogle Homepage


I have been using iGoogle as my homepage. It's appealed to me because you can customize the desgin, layout, links, and way that you like. It's interesting.

My to-do list
I like using the to do list because it has the potential to help keep me organized. It's a good way to jot down anything thoughts or assignments without having to worry about finding a pen and paper.


My google calendar

Calendar is always useful because it helps the days seem more organized. (Like I have said in a previous post about calendars) :]

I recommend that everyone, students, teachers, parents, friends, etc, use these sites to help maintain organization. They are helpful, easy, and quick to use.
