Tool 6: Wikis

What a fabulous way to have Wiki which shows the same document for everyone to work from.
We can all get on the same document and edit instead of emailing everyone.

By using Wiki in my classroom it will help me show my students that we can all use the computer to create a list of ideas or topics that they are interested in learning about. In my Pre-K class it will also allow us to work together to create one document without having to be in the same location at the same time.

Tool 5:Tagging and Social Bookmarking

These are the two websites that I found and bookmarked in my Digo.
1. http://www.cambridgeincolour.com/tutorials.htm
2. http://teachertube.com

In order to find these hot links, I used the educaitonal and photography tags.

This bookmarking tool will be useful and will allow me to keep track of the websites that I consider have the best information on Pre-K topics and ways to use photography to make student books.

Tools 4 Cool Google Tools

1. I was able to create my own google doc and had the pleasure to share with my following colleagues: Mr. Juan Alvarez and Mrs. Cecilia Puche.

2.
American Presidents Blog
Mrs. Yollis' Classroom Blog
Teach Paperless

PucheC

3. I will enjoy using both tools to keep informed with the updated online resources that I am interested in. I will also be able to create documents online and share them with others. My students will also benefit by using the computer to extend their writing.

Tools 3

I enjoyed experimenting with this blog. I will definitely use it to help my students create their own banners. This will help them in letter names and writing, since I teach Pre-K level.

Tool 2: Building Community & Comments

1. It would be an online of education community learners which I can learn and share from others. The interesting part is that we would be sharing with others who have similiar educational needs and interest.

2. Topics that encourage conversation. Several people have comments to share and are experienced in expressing themselves which allows me to see topics in different aspects.

3. I made comments on the following blogs:
A. Mrs. Yollis' Classroom Blog
B. La Bibliotecaria Loca
C. American Presidents Blog
D. Teach Paperless
E. History Is Elementary

Tool 1

It was a challenge for me, but found it exciting and knowledgeable. I am curious to work on the remaining tools and start incorporating the tools in my teaching and classroom environment. I am also excited about learning from others.
