ISTE! Again!

UGH! I had started a blog post on ISTE and then my screen when funny and the post disappeared!! Daggonit!! I will try again!

I decided to give Twitter another chance to win me over, but I am beginning to think that it’s me not Twitter that is the problem. Usually when you say that you really mean the other entity is the problem…but I really do think it’s me. Everyone seems to really get a lot out of interacting on Twitter and I don’t get it. Basically I check my facebook page so if they could put their Twitter feeds into my FB feed that would be nice. But back to ISTE. I wandered through several pages on ISTE and found most of the information redundant. There was a lot on Evernote, which seemed very popular, but what are these people ordering that they need a picture of measurements before they order a “pair”. I will find a presentation from Will Richardson that was very interesting, but I would have liked to have heard the audio because his slides, as they should have been, were not packed with information although they did have some actually articles on them that I read.

I then went to YouTube to see if I could find some video on the conference. From watching people’s reactions I would have been excited about the conference. I like the video about Kevin Honeycutt putting his iPad on a Paper Jam guitar and using GARAGE BAND he was playing the guitar and he has some kids playing the drums. That was pretty awesome. Cool technology.

I do wonder why I didn’t see Tom in the Flash Mob? Seems so his thing!

SOL Videos Can Be Fun!!!!

I found two math videos that I like for counting. Yes, they are a little cheesy, but let me explain…no there is too much…let me sum up (please someone get the Princess Bride reference):

This video counts to 10 showing the number with the same amount of objects and using counting squares. It shows counting forward and backwards and then shows the numbers again. This is definitely for the younger kids.

YouTube Preview Image

This video shows counting to 100 but in increments of 5 and moves the 5 circles around so that the kids realize that there are still 5 even if they aren’t in a line.

Hope you enjoy!!
