Tool 7

I am not able to do this tool because I do not have wifi at home. I will have to wait until I get back to school and then I would like to create a movie for music. I can see the benifits of this exercise and I really am anxious to try it. I have viewed several examples from other blogs from my school and find it interesting. Wish me luck when I attempt my movie.

I finally created a photostory and here it is.

I believe that students will be able to make their own videos about instruments, composers, and other types of music.

Tool 6

I have used Wikipedia and found some incorrect info, but it caused me to go to other sights for the correct info. I did try Wikis and found it interesting. I will try to use more Wikis for my classes in the new year.

Tool 5

I had a Yahoo account, so I then added the Delicious account for bookmarking. I went the the link of lyrics for Children's Songs that I can use in the classroom.

Tool 4

I have used Google Doc asnd Google Reader. It wasn't that hard, but I need to use it to remember what I have to do each time. I am writing down the info so I will remember what I did. I have subscribed to five blogs and I hope to communicate with them throughout the year.

Tool 3

I have tried the Flikr site, but I have not been able to access the photos I want. I did use Wordle for my music vocabulary. I did not "play around" with it as much as I wanted, but at least I can now use the site. I hope that at the end of this experience I will be able to do more. Just want to add that I did a magazine cover and it was interesting. Maybe I'll get the hang of this yet.

Tool 2

I am really having a tough time with this program. I am not really computer savvy and I get really frustrated. I now know how my granddaughter feels when she can't do what the "grownups" do. (She's six and wants to be able to do everything Daddy does)
