One of our favorite activites at the conclusion of Morning Meeting is The Shoe Game.  Each student takes off one shoe and puts it in the pile.  Then, one by one, we take turns picking up a shoe and handing it to its owner (if we can figure that out!).  It’s a fun way to start the day.

Our computer teacher and my worthy technology advisor, Laura Smith, introduced me to this wonderful, creative, new site. It took me several hours to figure it out so that I could introduce it to a few of my students. I introduced it Thursday and my students were off and running in no time.  These days, it seems children have a 6th sense called “technology intuition”.  My students are gobbling up Kerpoof.  I have set up a class page in which students log in, create masterpieces, and then save them for me to view and share in class.  Students just click on the KerPoof logo above, then log in using first initial and last name. The password is ABCD, and the class code is X513.  We will be doing some language arts and social studies projects using Kerpoof, so play around and have some fun.
