I really enjoyed learning how to use all the tools and sites we learned about within the 23 things! My favorites were animito, flickr, and overall how to use and make a blog. I know that learning all these things will greatly benefit me in my future job. I really liked that everything we used was so different. Nothing about this project seemed repetitive and I liked that. I'm not a person who stays up on all the technology because so much is evolving these days, but I truely think this project helped me so much. Now I have a really good idea about how to keep up with technology. I liked the ideas about staying organized as a teacher because being organized is very important to me. I thought that learning how to make the flowcharts and using the calendars were very helpful.
I know that in my future classroom I will go back to this project and use all the helpful tools and sites that I learned about. I look forward to exploring more with these sites and continuing to blog.

THING 23.........
The 23 things use so many sources within itself. Flickr, Animoto, Wikis, Twitter, YouTube, Zoho, and so many more. It has a creative commons license and is able to be used by students and teachers for educational reasons.
I know that as a teacher I will use creative commons to double check the sites available for me to use. I will be able to tell which ones I am allowed to use. I can also use this to share my ideas with other teachers.

Thing number 22!
The names of my binders are K-12 Education, Classroom Projects, and Math Chants.
Math Chants!
This is a great tool to use for lesson plans. If you chose different sites to use in a lesson one day, this is a great way to organize those sites all in one place. As I have learned so many useful sites to use in my future classroom, this will help organize my lessons. I know that I will use blogs from other teachers along with so many other sites I am now well aware of. I look forward to using this site in my classroom.

Thing 21!
Family and Friends Video
I loved exploring how to use the Animoto site. It was so easy to navigate through and although my clip was short and simple, I loved the outcome! I chose the rustic template and I thought it was really neat the way it arranged and presented the photos. I will most definatly use this site again. It is a great way to gather all your pictures from a family trip or even possibly a school field trip. It is very far from boring and really brings your pictures to life. I could not figure out how to embedd my video but adding the link was the only way I knew how to do it.

Thing 20:
YouTube Video
I liked using YouTube. It was neat looking at so many videos. I found this video and thought everyone would really enjoy it. Me and my roommates loved watching it. We thought it would be so cool if our high school could have done this. It was awesome to see how this school came together and worked so hard to make this very memorable experience and video.

THING 19!
I have a Facebook, twitter, pinterest, and now a Teacher Pop. I use these social networks daily. I keep up with Facebook mainly to stay connected with families and friends. Sharing pictures is great on Facebook. For example, my aunt just had a baby in Austin, Texas and we are looking for pictures on Facebook constantly. I use twitter for same reasons, but twitter gives you the opportunity to connect with famous people. Pinterest is my favorite. It has ideas for hairstyles, recipes, home décor, and even classroom ideas. Teacher Pop is new for me but I am excited to explore it more!
{Thing 18}
Social Networking is very popular today. It is a great way to be connected with people and groups. I have had Facebook and twitter for a while now, and I love staying connected with people, friends, and now connecting with the college of education. So many people are social networking that you can pretty much find anyone your looking for. Twitter is neat to connect with stars and feel like you know them personally. My grandparents even have Facebook accounts which they enjoy the pictures shared among family the most.
