Week 2
1. this week our task was to check out wordle.com website.  but first, we were told to take out a piece of paper and find a person sitting next to you  and tape the paper on  his or her back. then we were told to walk around and come up with a word that describe that person. "adjective" while we were doing this game, i knew what we were going through, but i didn't know what was the point of the game. later Mr. Jenkins showed us an example, of the words we all came up with in wordle.com. this is a very interesting and useful website. i never know that in this website, you could create such amazing arts and actually put it or apply it to real life experiences. when i was exploring and creating my name i thought of inventing such arts. this type  of work using technology has broaden my horizon of technology. this is cool and fun. it's sort of touch on higher order of thinking skills. why? because you will need your imagination to type and create. if your teaching language arts, you can also use this website as one resource to enhance the students understanding of vocabulary.( word builder as well) fun fun fun. and you can also use this site as a teaching strategy if your lesson is about story elements ( fray-al model). i would give this website a 10 plus. meaningful and fun.
2.  the 2nd task was to go to www.bubble.us.com. this website was sort of difficulty since it is dealing with re organization chart. we were asked to design our own chart on how we should include technology in the classroom. when i was designing my own, i focused on school of technology itself. it was hard and difficult at first but as i worked through, it gets easier. i learned a lot from this doing this time line. now i can do my own organization chart. for this kind of work, in the classroom, i can use it in differentiating my instructions so it is easier for me to see who to work with and what kind of work they will be doing and most easier to plan for instruction. i would rate  this site as an  excellent. it makes the work easier and much faster in the classroom.
