Thing 10


I used the puzzle for fun, but I could use it for maps and such to review students for LA/SS. I couldn't downloak the things I did on wordle. That sinks because I made a really cool restroom pass. Maybe next time.




Thing 8

I can't believe there is so much interesting stuff so readily available. Both in the fied of education and in my personal life. I'm sorta into celebrity gossip and weird stories.
Implications for student use are many. They can use RSS when they are doing units. Since most of the subjects taught at my school used integrated units, RSS will be awesomw, not to mention eary to use.

Thing 4? Not too easy, I thought my blog address was already entered. Hopefully I did it right this time.

Learning Contract

I think my biggest obstable in becoming a lifelong learner is the fear of not knowing anythng about something. I realize the way to stop this is to expose yself to things unknown. Then, do research or ask people who know questions.
I am not really worried about time or my toolbox, I have everything I need. Free time, a computer, internet and a modicum of creativity. But not too much.
I was slightly worried about becoming bored, but the "things," are very varied and there are plenty of them.
Unfortunately, I do not have a lot of support in doing this here at the beach, but I'm going to do my darndest.

Monday

While being my second day here, today was the first day I actually went to the beach. While at the beach. I usually chat with friends, enjoy the sunshine and/or read a book. Today, I enjoyed the sunshine and a book. It was called "Eat, Drink and Be From Mississippi." While not an awesome read, it did entertain me for the afternoon.
I have to warn you, when I am on the beaach, I read beach books, no hardcore literature for the most part.
