School / Work Affiliation: Reading Specialist 5-12th grade

About Me: I am currently my districts reading specialist for grades 5-12. I teach a high school second chance reading class so am always looking for ideas for read alouds from short stories. I also have 7th and 8th grade reading exploratory and am looking for ideas for those students also. I have small groups of 5-8th grade students who are struggling readers.

Happy New Year! I was wondering if you, your educator contacts or students would be interested in participating in a nationwide Vocab Video Contest @ MIT university. We'd really like to get more students involved from Iowa!

You can view contest details at BrainyFlix.com Please let me know. Thanks!

http://tinyurl.com/6e33th is the link to Langwitches' blog which is a tutorial on how to use Photostory. http://tinyurl.com/a26n8 is a link to the microsoft tutorial.
Hope this helps.

Great for language development.
