spreadsheets in the classroom, what!!

I had an enjoyable time searching the internet for different uses of spreadsheets in the classroom. I found a wonderful site for instruction and for different uses on the internet. It has different links for what to use spreadsheets for and what not to use them for. It also contains basic instructions for how to use spreadsheets. Fun, right.

I learned that timelines are an easy and quick thing to teach to kids in elementary school. I also learned that graphs are not too hard to do. I reccommend this site for anyone who is interested in getting some good facts on spreadsheet uses and how to use the basics of a spreadsheet.click her to be the spreadhsheet kang

mardi gras

I did pretty much nothing for mardi gras. I am not a huge fan of downtown mobile and the drunkeness that runs rampant through the city. I did enjoy myself however by sleeping in until about noon. The rest of the day i just relaxed and played with my dogs and chilled out. Good times.

costa rica blog


This blog is a collaboration from teachers living and teaching in costa rica. It contains infromtion about general facts in costa rica and why it is such a great place to live. It also contains information about what each teacher does and links to different sites. It covers everything from photo albums to bus schedules.

It is an interesting site for those individuals who would like to go to costa rica and a good persuader for those individuals who have not thought about going to costa rica. Anyway check it out son.click here for great times and good fun

blogging

My first couple of weeks blogging has been interesting. I have never blogged before so it is all new to me. I really do not use the computer a whole lot either so hopefully i can become more computer literate.

I think that blogging is fun and can be very useful for younger kids. It would teach them how to use the computer more effectively and open different opportunities for them. Blogging can also give kids more options in school other than just sitting in a desk listening. It allows interaction between kids and interaction between the kids and the teacher. It also can be accessed from any computer which allow kids who miss schoool or need information to obtain outside of class. Blogging does however allow kids to say anything that they want to which is one of the negative aspects of blogging. Overall bloging can be a useful tool in any classroom and can help kids to become more adjusted to the computer and all of the tools that come along with it.
