That 5th Tool

Ok so love having the WEB 2.0 on the NEW Library Resources page - First used Web 2.0 options with the kids Summer Reading.  Rather than the typical "poster" for their Summer Reading Project, the Grade Level kids used Big Huge Labs and created Playing Card for the Protagonist/Antagonist/
Seeing Storybird as an option, I signed up for an account and created a story using artwork that the kids will have to actually write the narrative.  This will be a good way to review/utilize plot elements early in the year.  Could be a great group activity.
Additionally, LOVE Prezi- used a Persuasion Prezi with the kids today to examine commericals and what persuasive techniques were present.  What appeals were used? What type of support?

Endless classroom possibilties...
