Thanks for the great ideas! I really like the idea of photographers or parents commenting. I like the "reflection" idea as well. The students should reflect in their blog posts, but creating a short "team reflection"…"
Sue Waters replied to Mark Mitchell's discussion Learning to Blog in the group Classroom 2.0 Beginner Group!"Hi Mark, you have a couple of options for adding the photos to the post. If you want the photos aligned alongside each other - like you have in this post - you will struggle. One way is to make it look like they are alongside each other by making…"
Patty Cantrell replied to Mark Mitchell's discussion Learning to Blog in the group Classroom 2.0 Beginner Group!"Mark,
I love this idea. I am sure the project will be great for your students.
I do have some additional ideas I would like to share. You might have each team write up a brief reflection of the project. They could describe what worked and what…"
Mark Mitchell replied to Mark Mitchell's discussion Learning to Blog in the group Classroom 2.0 Beginner Group!"Hi Candace-Do I mind if you "steal" my idea? Of Course not! In fact- I encourage it! I don't even think of it as stealing. I like to think I am sharing. After all, we are educators, and we share our knowledge with our students, so,…"
Mark Mitchell replied to Mark Mitchell's discussion Learning to Blog in the group Classroom 2.0 Beginner Group!"Hi Kelly- I checked out Animoto.com, and it looks pretty cool. This could be something I could use with the kids. I know they would love the music and image interaction. Thanks for a great idea!"
Mark Mitchell replied to Mark Mitchell's discussion Learning to Blog in the group Classroom 2.0 Beginner Group!"Thanks Bryan!"
Candace Townsley replied to Mark Mitchell's discussion Learning to Blog in the group Classroom 2.0 Beginner Group!"I hope you don't mind if I steal your idea. I got a wonderful birthday present from a photography friend using this technique to spell out my name & framed it. People LOVE it! I think my students would LOVE doing this!!"
Kelly Reierson replied to Mark Mitchell's discussion Learning to Blog in the group Classroom 2.0 Beginner Group!"I am not a photography teacher but I think this is a great idea. Have you thought about having the students create an Animoto video as a way to showcase their alphabet. If you aren't familiar
with it take a peak at Animoto.com---and the videos…"

Mark Mitchell replied to Mark Mitchell's discussion Learning to Blog in the group Classroom 2.0 Beginner Group!"Thanks Jocelyne. The Name aspect does help, and it gets the kids excited about finding "their" letters."
Mark Mitchell replied to Mark Mitchell's discussion Learning to Blog in the group Classroom 2.0 Beginner Group!"Thanks Ann-
I appreciate your feedback-I know when I did this project in the past, the kids really took to it, and it helped them to develop their own "photographic eye". Doing this online and collaboratively seems like a natural…"
Ann Chappel replied to Mark Mitchell's discussion Learning to Blog in the group Classroom 2.0 Beginner Group!"Mark,
I love the collaborative interaction of this project design and getting students to look at the world in a new way. I also love the fact that it is multi-age and can be enjoyed by young and older students. It's also a great way to learn…"
