Well, we are back from a very refreshing break, and everyone is ready for learning again! Once again, I have fallen behind on this particular blog and have a lot of catching up to do. I promise to work harder at updating on a regular basis. I've gotten much better at updating my technology blog and plan to spend more time on this blog during the new year.
I'll start by updating you on another Skype call. We had the opportunity to Skype with a businessman in Marshall who explained the important role that math plays in his job. We had a great conversation and you can some of it through videos found on my website. Click here for the link. Anytime we do another Skype call, you will be able to see the information from this location.
I have also found a really cool Web 2.0 tool that allows us to map our Skype calls. The students are able to see exactly where our calls took place, and provides a place to keep pictures or videos from the call so that we can share. Click here for our map.
One of the other great things we have been doing is blogging! We haven't created a ton of blogs yet, but we are starting to get the hang of it. If you click here, you can see some of our first posts.
This should give you plenty of reading and viewing to complete for awhile. I'll be updating more this week about our UIL field trip, so check back for more information.
