Tool #5 Tagging and Social Bookmarking

This is a great way to keep all your bookmarks organized. I joined diigo and was able to create a simple list of bookmarks that I usually check.
The first one I found was of course: Houston Weather. Who doesn't keep track of the weather. I used both words as tags to find this website.
http://www.khou.com/weather

The second site is from Venezuela because sometimes I like to keep track of the news and situation of my country.

http://www.venezuelanalysis.com

This could be very useful in my classroom, because I could find resources online easily without searching all the web for them. I would have the links of my lesson's resources already organized in a list that I could access throughout the year.

Tool #4 Cool Google Tools

What a perfect way to share lesson plans and documents for everybody to edit and collaborate without the need to have several files to be updated. I really enjoyed learning about Google Docs and Google Reader.
This video was the perfect explanation of this.

I am now following some of my co-workers and sharing one of my documents which could be updated and edited by several people.

Tool # 3 Image Generators and Mashups

This was a neat way to make picture displays. I used www.bighugelabs.com for this.

In the next one I used Spell with Flicker. I think it turn out great!. My kids could use this to spell their names in different ways.

Tool #2 PLN and Commenting

PLN is the best way to keep up with the everyday technology updates. and share with others teachers and parents experiences and ideas by commenting in their blogs.

I commented on Ms. Estrada and Ms. Orozco's blogs because after reading them I agreed of what they have to say.

Tool 1: Blog Set-up & Registration

I spent a lot of time but I had fun doing it. I can't wait to learn much more about blogging.

This will be a good comunication bridge between students, parents, and teachers
