I really enjoyed setting up my flickr account. Espically when I was able to upload pictures from my computer instead of pulling out my camera and taking pictures in the house. Most of the time I am already for bed when I do my homework so those pictures do not look that good!!!
I hated to use flickr for the spell out or the puzzle board. I could not really see my words and I was using my child to help me with this. I would definetly use the picture flickr in the classroom to show my students how to create blogs for self and for other students around the world to see our classroom. However, I will stay away from spell or puzzle flickr because I could not understand it. The word part of flickr was hard for me to follow and that would take up to much constructive classroom time.

This is my website for my picture from the Flickr account. It was a very easy account to set up. It was very easy to find the pictures from my computer. It was hard to find the settings and how to send it to my blog for school. I hope you can find it through this html.

The two sites I choose from Web 2.0 awards list that I find helpful for my lifestyle is Ask.com and Amazon.com.
In the classroom and everywhere that I take my children the ask.com is real handy. I can use it on my phone or computer to type in any question. For example, when kids used to ask parents why is the sky blue while driving in the car, parents would say its just the reflection of the ocean. Not true at all parents. Now we have Ask.com and you can type in those questions and get answers back immediately. In a classroom that works perfect to start your day with a brain teaser. I would have a different student each day type in a question that we all have wondered about and that would help move the class day. For my class it can be any subject as along as it is clean and age appropriate.
My second choice from the web sites is more of a personal one. That would be amazon.com. I love when I can not find an item in the stores I can go home and shop for it through amazon. 99% of the time what I need is there and I can get it shipped for free!!!! In fact if the super saver amazon do not have the items, it gives you comfort in letting you chose other sellers as well. I buy all of my daughter's ballet items on line because the stores are just to expensive. I have not figured out how to use this website in my classroom yet but if you have any ideas please share them with me.

What does School 2.0 mean to you?
This is one of the questions that was asked in the video from Kansas State University. My answer is that class rooms "creative thinking" time will increase to a huge amount. Classrooms will be able to not only read about a subject but will be able to see it in action and actually move in time. For example, a science teacher will no longer talk about the Moon phases, but will be able to use the Internet to show students how it works and they will be able to interpret the answer in a real time sort of way.
I believe this would be a great advantage to keep our children up to date on current events and not lag behind.
Most importantly for me I think it will be fun for some subjects but not for others. In my opinion I would use it in Science, Music, and Dance classes. However, I will not use it in a Math class unless it is necessary.
Another question from Web 2.0 (Wikipedia), what does it mean for schools in the future?
I have to say for schools that are truly advanced in eduction, technology, and finance they need to run with this program and produce more efficient programs than ever. In fact they could teach each other how to help each other with out the teacher having to stand over each and every student. The teacher can handle the class as a hole just from his/her computer screen.
As for the school districts that do not have the resources we as tax payers need to work a little harder on the government so that none of our children in the United States gets left behind.

Hello again and its nice to talk to you.
I think if you have decided to set up a blog for whatever reason you should check it to see what people are saying.
My comments about Edublogger Etiquette is that you should commit on a few of the blogs at least once a week. Commenting on a blog every moment of the day is a little extreme. However, not commenting at all is a bit rude. As a person you should find your own balance based on your individual schedule. My schedule changes every week so on my easy day of the that week would be the perfect time to read, edit, and respond to any blogs that I have accumulated or responded to.
A web blog is a great way to connect to someone about a particular subject. You can learn good ideas as well as bad ideas about a subject or even a person. For example, you have a certain political candidate in mind but not sure about how you feel about them. You could post it to your blog and let readers give you good and bad information on the candidate. Once you have read and responded to the blogs you will have a better chance at choosing who you would like to represent you in the government world.
At the end of the day its your decision about using the web-blog choose it wisely and welcome to the blog world. I can not wait to hear from you.

Thing # 2 of 23 List
Hello world,
I am back again. My teacher decided to take me up on to another challenge. I had to publish an avatar. I loved creating a little paper doll person. No she is not the real me but close enough for the syber world. I chose the actual color of my skin, hair, and smile. However my hair is a little longer but the style is the same. I choose the outfits I normally wear. I love tank tops and jeans. I am a tennis shoe fanatic!!!!! Well just mainly a Nike shoe fanatic. I was getting a little upset with the copy and paste during the course of time. My personality does reflect in this avatar because I am fond of smiling it keeps the blood pressure down plus it shows I am a good person. I am not one to really dress up unless I am going out for a romantic night on the town. Other than this world, I have completed the avatar, enjoyed and now I am waiting on you to return messages back. Do you like what I have become?

I must tell you the beginning of my technology adventure just started. My teacher decided to have us create this blog page and I had no clue what blog even was. So to tell you I had to read, read, read, read, and read again just to understand the words. Then I had to create another user name and password. Like I do not already have a million of those to remember. I just learned how to save favorites to my yahoo address book. But I am frustrated even while I am typing this blog. It is fairly easy with the step by step bullets given by my professor. All in all it was not too bad but I just don't like this because I am a private person who does not like anyone knowing anything about unless I speak it out of my mouth. I don't know who looks at these pages.
Now that I have vented to you world, hello by the way, I am off to the next lovely task..Stay Tune

The Hardest of the 7 1/2 Habits of a Lifelong learners for me would be number six: use technology to your advantage. I look at most of the new items that hit the stores and mostly if I buy one I have my child work it first. I do this so I can just blame the "stupid machine." I do not take the time to learn them or put them to better usage other than using it to play a video game. I must say this class is going to teach me to come out of my shell and really get to moving. Do you want to see how it goes? Follow me this whole semester and I will give it to you play by play!!!!
The Easiest of the 7 1/2 of a Lifelong learners for me is to PLAY!!!! I am such a kid at heart. I love to be outside (during the hot season only of course), play dress up (with my children of course), and to run at least a mile just to exercise. Playing was a part of my life growing up. When my kids come home from school they have worked just as hard as I have in school. So when the weekend rolls around we must have fun because we have been stuck in the house with books, papers, and pencils to our noses for hours... It's time to play, relax, and have fun. Now that Monday is here it is time to get back to work and study hard for school.
