I absolutely loved having "Virtual Class." GAS is almost $4.00 at the present time, so driving to Hickory has gotten pretty old. It was so nice to sit on my couch and use Skype if I needed help on any of my assignments. It was a nice change. I was able to communicate with Celeste when I was having issues about some of the assignments.
I don't think I would want every class online. We definitely needed Dr. K.'s personal help here and there for some of the projects.

Biltmore House E-Book!
Biltmore House E-Book
I just finished this E-Book on my class field trip to the Biltmore House. Each child was given a letter word. (Ex: A: Asheville.) They each wrote about their part of the trip. The students loved recording and videoing themselves as I worked on this project.
If I had to do it again, I would have tried to do a better job on the videos. Kids are hard to work with sometimes. Other than that, I enjoyed the project.

Bubbleply Baby Video
Video
Bubbleply is a fun tool to use. I can see teaching my students to write dialogue in the bubbles on the video. Quotation marks are something students struggle with across the board in later elementary school and middle school. This would be a great alternative to worksheets!
I thought it was going to take me a little while to understand how to use it, but it came really easy.

Voki Message: Welcome Back to School Poem
Get a Voki now!
My students would love Voki. I know they would love choosing their character and accessorizing it. I read a poem on my Voki. I can see having my students read a story they wrote on their Voki.

MY KIDS USING MY WEBQUEST!
So we had a Biltmore day at our school. One of the stations was my Biltmore Webquest that I worked so hard on! They had so much fun, and said it was their favorite station!

SKYPE
Sarah and I had a conversation tonight on SKYPE. It was kind of silly because we were sitting right next to each other, but if we were in a 3rd world country it would be awesome. You can find me with this address: kelly.harmon104 I also think this would be an awesome thing to use in the classroom.

Delicious Bookmarking
I have found it much easier to bookmark. I don't know what happened to cause the delay in sites showing up, but now things are much better! I love the way I can organize different sites in this program. It is extremely helpful for me when I am away from my home computer. Why didn't anyone think of this earlier?
