Todays Class

Hello Bloggers,

Today we are talking about visualization.
bring more visualization tools to the class. what the media does is stereotype different races and so we think a certain race is a certain way.
Charts can be misleading.  for example: How do seasons occur?
Where can we use visualization: assessment.  show the students the visual picture and have them draw it on a test.
The Periodic Table of Visualization Methods- this is a link where you can check out different visualization methods.  Its really cool and really helpful.  Check it out!!!
Tagxedo- this is a website where you can create a picture with words around it.  check this out too.
ToonDoo- its a cool way to make cartoons online.  you can sign up for free :)
We also used Clickers :D- we used it on the macs- TurningPoint

Also my update proposal is on this link http://www.slideshare.net/underhis
www.starfall.com- also link that helps with spelling

We also had a presentation today by a classmate on ADHD.  they now classify students with ADD with ADHD and just have sub categories.
We also learned a website classed www.iknowthat.com 

I also learned that there is a new ocean that was made.  Southern Antarctic Ocean.
