I found this activity to be both interesting and frustrating. I ended up with many more great ideas that I'd like to try, but still find myself floundering as to HOW to work the programs. Luckily for me, Lisa was willing to pop up and help me OFTEN!!!
I loved the Data Collection Tools, and will definitely incorporate some of them into my BLOG. I'd like to poll parents to see just what type of items they would like to see on my Hiawatha Web Page...which items they would access most and which would be most relevant to their child's education.
On another note, Shaun and I came across a very disturbed young lady while we were on the Story Telling website called oneword.com. This gal was talking of death and how she'd let her family and friends down and truly freaked us out. We were trying to find her profile so we could let her know things would be OK!!!! Made me wonder if some of these sites are being turned into ways for kids to reach out to others! That's not necessarily a bad thing, but if kids need help of some kind, it would be good to find ways to lead them in the right direction!
