Tool #3 Embedding Video

After exploring kidtube, teachertube and youtube I found all of them very useful.

Thank you Ms. Frazzled for posting the videos from Atomic Learning because I found the three videos on Embedding Video.

I loved finding video that are usable in the first weeks of the school year, Brown Bear and Chicka Chicka Boom Boom.

I liked looking speciffically at other Pre-K sites, because they all provided resources that could be incorporated into the current Pre-K curriculum.

Leaving my comment on someones' blog is a good experience. I liked seeing what others had done and also the way that others are thinking about the use of technolgy in the classroom. This really is an open path that needs to be explored and looked at indepth to determine what you can add to your own class and give your students additional resources to use in their education.

Pre-Kindergarten Tool #1

I am so excited about 11-tools. I think it will give me good insight into what I can add to my Pre-K day to help the students gain technological skills and tools.

I am also glad that I got to use the same blog from earlier. I have too many going and didn't want to keep up with another blog.

Hey My Name is Joe

Well parents here it is!! The ridiculous song that your children have been singing with all of the crazy movements. "Hey My Name Is Joe!"

Enjoy yourself and have fun laughing with your students. Come on, you know you want to get up and dance with your children, let's move!!

A New Beginning 2010-2011

We have learned names of our friends! Then we sang songs, have you heard, "Hey My name is Joe?" you should ask your son or daughter to sing for you. We also went on a "Bear Hunt" it was GREAT!!!

We have been reading new books and have made several new friends including, David who's mom always told him No! and Bertie, who has some really GROSS habits, ask your kids about his eewy habits!

We have been learning to sequence events and character of a story, we (they) are AMAZING when it comes to Brown Bear.

We have had a few discussions about authors and illustrators and we have written in our journals and showed off our own skills as authors and illustrators.

Don't forget SHOW-and-TELL is every Friday!

Thanks for sending your children to school!

So far, we are 100% perfect attendance.

See you at school!
Mr. O'Quinn
