Thing 9

Well, my faith was restored in my computer ability. I was able to complete this Thing. Still no luck on posting my mash up from thing 8 though so I wanted to go ahead while I was in the mood.

I have heard about this thing but haven't really checked it out until now. It is rather neat finding all these videos. Maybe I can cut down on my cable bill. There sure was lots of stuff to keep one occupied.

I did enjoy viewing a few science videos. We do life cycle of plants, butterflies and frogs in first grade. I could upload these video files and with ZamZar save them onto my SmartBoard. I am taking SmartBoard tomorrow for staff development and hopefully will have time to put some of these videos to use.

I do agree that the teacher would have to be very careful in previewing the entire video first to make sure all is okay. I think it has great applications for the classroom. I am excited.

I left a comment on the site of the life cycle of the butterfly. It will be interesting to see if I hear back from the person. Fun stuff for sure.
