Well, it's been a while, but I'm back for a new school year, and this week's edition brings us to a tool that, to be honest, I've only found within the last few weeks, but that I think could be of great benefit and interest to your child.
The site is Glogster. What is it? Online poster making. Now I know you've had the same fun that I've had in the past, which is buying the posterboard, the markers, the gluesticks, and everything else. Well, save the money, the supplies, and the time. Glogster is a site where students can create their own posters. I am going to have my students create a few throughout the year---they'll decide when they can properly use them for an assignment.
My creation is below. It took me about 30 minutes, but I was able to embed a video, upload a few images from my computer at home, and go through their extensive library of content as well. If I were to have more time, I'm sure that the end result would be even more intricate, but that's all right for today.
Quite large, huh? So what do you think? Could your kids improve on this? I bet they could...
Until next time...
