It's not so bad!

I was feeling overwhelmed with all of the things we are beginning to do in here. I am now more comfortable with iGoogle, Google Reader, and how to link blogs I'm following from Blogger to Reader. I am no longer overwhelmed, although I do need to find websites to put on my Webquest. I need to focus on that, but first, I am going to work on following more blogs!

Exciting.

We are studying wikis now. I am still a little confused... but I'm sure it will become clear as I play with it more. I know we have to do an assignment involving me posting helpful websites to the different pages of the Early Childhood Eduction wiki, so I'm sure I will understand it by the time it is finished.

I also used Google Docs for another class. We had a group project, and I made te project on Google Docs, and then shared it with everyone in my group so they could see it. It was very convenient.

I created a wiki today. That was interesting. It was a little more difficult than I thought it was going to be, but I do feel special saying I am a part of one. The thing I feel especially cool about is being able to link URLs to words. That's super fun. I've always wondered how you do that, and I am glad I know how now.

Another one

In class today, we talked more about blogs and learned how to link videos, photos, and websites to our blogs. I tried doing this, and if you are interested, I linked a pretty cool teaching website to my post below. It has games for children, lesson plans, and subjects for all grades K-12. It's actually a good resource for both teachers and parents. (It's also the website I talk about in my evaluating websites post.)

Learning how to link

Ok, let's see if this works. Try this link to this cool teaching website I found!
