week 7, thing #17, the sandbox

Region One Sandbox -- go ahead and play! The magic password is "library." So, I did. It was easy enough. If I did it, my kiddos can do it. I was even taken by surprise when I received an email telling of an update/edit. Neato mesquito! This is a great tool for English. I can keep tabs on who is contributing.

week 7, thing #16, about wikis

Just as I was about to finish viewing from the list of library wikis, I was taken to another site, another list. It began with The Blogging Libraries Wiki. The purpose of this wiki is to collect links to library blogs. It led me to a list of school library blogs. I went through them all, A-Z. I took notes the old fashion way, and my list of favorites grew. I also must have dreamt of widgets. They are endless as well. Wikis can easily be sold to students. They text now. I can't see why not?! Oh, perhaps the idea of it being for a grade...The seller must be that they'll have fun at the same time, or they can always take out the old paper and pen.
