Special Delivery

We got them! Our students logged on to the netbooks within moments of them being delivered. They were excited to finally have them in the classroom. So far so good!

My students are using the netbooks and ToonDoo (www.toondoo.com) this week to create comic strips illustrating the Rise of the Roman Empire. I am loving this web site and it seems that my students are too. It is very user friendly and allows for endless creativity and imagination.

Was introduced to Brain Pop (www.brainpop.com) this afternoon and think it is awesome! Like ToonDoo, it is very user friendly and interactive. It seems that this will be an excellent resource for our ESL/LEP students. Check out the Social Studies section of the site. I have the passwords and will pass them along.

Hmmm...I am trying to figure out a system for managing all of the user names and passwords for our students. Any ideas?????

  1. Are you talking about the usernames and passwords for all of the Web 2.0 tools? I have made a habit to always use the same one for all of my Web 2.0 tools. That way I'm only remembering 1.
