Welcome Jan to the wonderful world of blogging!

I look forward to working with you because I know you will have an incredible blog, with beautiful student artwork to post to the world!

Go Animate

This is my first Go Animate Movie. I haven't really learned to use it yet, how to create characters that really talk and flow but hopefully it will inspire the 6th graders to use yet another form as a platform for sharing writing and technology with other students around the world.

Google video embedding

Too bad Merl wasn't around....guess the second graders are cute enough! I am going to see if something uploaded to google video can embed well in a blog. Here goes!

Learning how to Podcast (sort of)

Just an experiment to see if I can put multiple images in this

and now, more writing to see if I can make this look like the blogs Jane likes.
It seems they chat alot and then do multiple images so.....



I knew old Merlie would bring me luck!!
I think I've got the hang of this now...so, bring on the Year of the Tiger!

Cedar Waxwing

A Backyard Visitor

Do you know the name of this beautiful insect? His cousin is the mighty Monarch butterfly. What kind of flowers does he like to sip? Does he seem to like any special colors?

Our Wonderful World

A place where children can explore nature online and best of all, offline. Go into your backyard and see what you can find. Pinecones, dragonflies, birds, bees, flowers, all waiting for you to visit them.
