What is plagiarism?

Well, watch this presentation and find out. Don't copy!

Imagine if.....

This morning I read this article.  It tells of a survey where kids were allowed to give ideas for new mobile apps.  There are some really good ideas here.  I think the best part is they are created by kids and therefore they are something that other kids would be interested in and would actually use.  I think as a teacher I need to be in tune with my students interests.  This kind of survey allows me to do that.  Check out this article!

Youtube.....a tool for learning

Youtube can be very fun!  There are all kinds of videos that I am sure you have looked at.  Did you know there is educational stuff on there too?  :)  Well I have put together 2 different playlists for my students.  One is for my Junior US History class.  The other is for my Senior US Government class.  Check them out.  I had a lot of fun putting them together.  Keep checking back, too.  You never know when I will be adding new videos to the lists.
