Happy Birthday Dr. Seuss!

Dont' forget Media Monday is TODAY! February 27th at 3:20.  I will be talking about the ELMO! (The digital document camera, not the small red furry monster!)

This week in the Media Center we will be doing everything Dr. Seuss style!
So come to the Media Center and you will see,
Things to amaze and do and be.
The K kids will see a book,
That will require a closer look.
It has pages that will pop,
It's by Dr. Seuss who's not a flop.
It has seven stories that are not true,
A fiction book that's even blue.
I may read it to the PreK as well,
For as a book, it's really swell!
In technology we'll visit his site,
www.seussville.com it is all right!

I've heard some discussions about the digital presentation project.  You are on the right track!  Keep it up!Here are some ideas for you to think about: 
PowerPoint
Photostory
Story Bird
Prezi
Animoto
Kerpoof
Digitales
Flip video
Movie Maker
Virtual Field Trips
You can find links to many of these from the Technology Curriculum Live Binder: http://www.livebinders.com/play/present?id=127467
If you click on the tabs:  Writing Resources, and Digital tools--creating content, you will find links to many of these tools.  Take a look and let me know how I can help!  Most of all, have fun with it!!

Today I'm ending with a quote from Dr. Seuss:
“Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened.”
Dr. Seuss

    From what I can see
    The Dr., the dentist and Elmo,
    All THREE!
