Story Telling Assignment

This was a fun assignment, I decided to work with some photos that I took on Patriot's day. We got some great pictures so I really wanted to share them with everyone. Yes, that IS me in the third slide - hiding on the far right in the red shirt. This was actually a very moving event, someone from one of the nearby military bases flew over for several minutes in their helicopter. It was truly amazing.

WebTool Assignment

These are really great tools! BigBus Testmaker could even be used to make study guides for my own children. I liked how easy the rubric was to create, although we do not use these in our K5 class now, it will hopefully be beneficial in the future. For me anyway! As for Trackstar.com - the bookmarker, ??? it will be great once I get more familiar with other useful websites.

These are my creations:

So, I just completed and submitted my concept map. That was real interesting. Especially setting colors and backgrounds - something bad is up with my monitor. Overall it was kinda' neat, wish I knew about this when I was writing all those English Lit term papers!
