Day FOURTEEN

We started the day by learning ways of generating Technology Learning in the Classroom with Ms. Billie Jean Fulton. She gave use several very useful websites which I'll post below so I can find them later: 

I really liked working in Thinglink. I made a Thinglink image with a picture of me and my siblings (Mis Hermanos). I would like to use this image to teach students how to talk about their siblings in Spanish. I included three questions to answer in English, and put "markers" on each on my siblings saying whether they were a "hermano" or "hermana" and whether they were "mayor" or "menor"by looking at the markers for each. I think the students would enjoy this more than simply being told what each means. 

We talked to Tony's friend in England. I learned several things I didn't know about English, namely a few differences between their education system and ours, and some of the mentalities they have in business--he says they are less "up front" and "direct" and he had to learn "the art" of being more "subtle" while getting his point across. Oh, and I had to ask if they have peanut butter, which they do. lol. 

Today we finished our Flat Stanley video and shared it with the group. Hope and I stayed late yesterday and put all the video in order and made a few edits, so today we just had to make some more edits and add music. We had some trouble with file type for the music, but that was finally resolved, and we had trouble producing the video. Thankfully, Dr. "B" came to the rescue and fixed our issue. I was very proud of my group's work and thought the video turned out pretty cute!
