Thing 10

Here is a short clip about never giving up when we are teaching. It really gets to the point. Sometimes we need to be reminded how much we mean to the kids.




I wasn't able to download a video from YouTube yet. I tried Keepvid and pwn and had problems with both. I plan to try Zamzar next although it takes longer.

Thing 9

I have to admit this was my first time on YouTube. I guess I never had the desire to check it out or the time. It was very interesting how much was on there. I enjoyed looking for various videos. I was looking of different children's programs that my kids like and found a lot of clips. I could see using this by showing clips of videos to kids of how to do certain things or an area that we were studying. I beleive it would be necessary though to view it defintely before showing it.

Thing 8

I loved this one! I spent a lot of time playing with the 2 websites and seeing what I could create with photos. I could totally have fun with pictures of my girls and creating borders and special effects. I loved the scrapbooking one too! As a class it could be fun creating a scrapbooking from field trips, class parties, assemblies, etc. throughout the year. The only thing that scares me at times is that you have to be careful what you put out there online. It seems through all the websites your pictures could "float" around in cyber space!

Thing 7

Uploading photos wasn't a problem at all. It is just like uploading to any site for photos and the video was very good once again. I think using this would be great for storing photos in the classroom especially if you are not using the same computer all the time. You then have a place to store them and you can access them any time or any place.
