Thing 18

I wish I had found this slide show a month ago. We just finished a study of Japan in First Grade. Some of these slides would have been neat to share on my smartboard. I did try to embed another one with an interactive alphabet but didn't have luck with it. This one I had better luck. I think like with youtube, a lot of this info can be used in the class when we are doing science, social studies,etc. I wonder though if it is blocked at school? Though I did recently learn that I can save a youtube video on a flashdrive and then bring it to school for the class to see. I am learning slowly but making progress.

I would be interested in creating a new power point presentation for open house and posting it on slideshare. It would be great for those parents who couldn't make open house. But would I be able to include photos of my class with children? Or just info on the class? Not sure what the district guidelines are on that.

It was a fun tool to explore. Again lots of neat things out there.

  1. Awesome ideas! What a Web 2.0 star you are becoming! I found both of your slide shows embedded just fine! Did you try viewing them on Mozilla Firefox instead of Internet Explorer?
