Final iMovie

Here is my final iMovie. This is a movie of my students showing that they know their ABC's. We started reading "Chicka Chicka Boom Boom" by Bill Martin at the beginning of the school year. This is how we introduced letters and began to teach them. The students often ask if we can read the story, or watch the video. The beginning of the movie shows a letter that the students colored, then them saying a word that starts with that letter. They really enjoyed helping their teacher with her homework.

My Favorite Podcast

My favorite iTunes podcast is Nickjr: Dora. I have been looking through the podcasts for a few days now and I have found a few that are interesting to me, but my students will LOVE this podcast. I can't wait to show them! I haven't watched all the episodes yet, but in April we will be learning about animals. One of the episodes that I did get to see is the Animal ABC's. Instead of saying the letter, they say the name of an animal.

Teachertube.com - My Favorite Video

My favorite teachertube.com video was the Top Ten List of Things You Do Not Learn About Teaching in College. This was my favorite video because several of the comments were very true. My favorite comment was about the principal's office still being scary. I get chills down my back each time I get called in there!

Article Review

Here is a short summary of an article I read. The title is ABC's of Media Literacy: What Can Pre-Schoolers Learn? It was written by Faith Rogow, PhD. The majority of the pictures are of my students posing to help me with my assignment. They thought it was pretty cool to be helping their teacher with her homework!

Two Minute Movie

This is a short example of one of my iMovie creations. Some of these pictures are from last school year, and a few are from this year.
