What a great set up Eric had for his 8th grade students. The Guerrilla Season blog brought a part of history alive for his students. He was able to reach his students using the latest technology that made learning fun, interesting, and interactive for all parties involved. It probably took him a lot of time to set this up but it pays dividends in the end. Our social studies teacher really integrates technology in her teaching using the starboard. It took her many hours to input and find things but the students absolutely love the class.
The Cool Cat Teacher Blog site was quite a busy site. There is stuff all over that site. I found lots of great links and good info but the site could be cleaned up a bit. Out of all the sites you reccomended to look at my favorite was the Remote Access site relating to siftables (little tiles that are interactive) Way Cool !!! It really makes you think of technology in a whole different realm besides a keyboard, drive system, and monitor. I could use the siftables in my class for spelling and math. The first grade students would really get a kick out of it and have fun learning their math facts and spelling with them. I had a great thought, Jim could you use your tech money or pay out of your own pocket for a set or two of siftables for my classroom!! Thanks in advance.

I agree that Vicky's site is getting too cluttered. But I'm guessing she is in HYPER drive all the time so her blog is a reflection of her personality.
The Guerilla Season is a perfect example in my opinion. What a great way to get kids thinking and creating and interacting with each other.
I'm glad you like Clarence's blog. He's very eager to share, so if you comment on his blog don't be surprised if he replies.
