The Daly News

Today I visited the K12 Online Conference, and viewed a session titled Little Kids, Big Possibilities. The presentation, by Kelly Hines, was about web 2.0 tools that can be used with elementary school-aged students.  There were some great tools shown that, as the Lower School librarian, I’d like to use with 4th and 5th graders.  I’d also like to share the presentation with the 4-5 teachers at my school, who will have lots of ideas on ways to use the tools with their classes.  The online, anytime delivery option will allow me to do that.

Here’s a wordle I created based on the Paul Fleishman book, Seedfolks, which was read by our 4th and 5th graders as part of a local foods theme. Wordle is one tool that I’m looking forward to using when school starts in the fall!
