http://literacyconnect.blogspot.com/2009/05/article-was-sent-to-me-by-our.html
Connecting teachers with technology and classroom resources. An article was sent to me by our technology coordinator showing one man's repentance for his actions during the Civil Rights Movement. I found it very interesting and thought you might, too. It just shows that even the worst kids of people can make a choice to be different. Read the article here. Posted by Tamra Lanning.

Literacy Connection: VoiceThread with Preschool
http://literacyconnect.blogspot.com/2009/05/blog-post.html
Connecting teachers with technology and classroom resources. Mrs Beaton graciously agreed to allow me to try out VoiceThread with her preschool class. I never imagined four and five year olds would be so nervous about recording their own voices. They did a great job, though! Posted by Tamra Lanning. I love voice thread! And this is great for all ages! I am very impressed with this idea! I conducted a similar lesson where I had my students podcast their vocabulary. May 28, 2009 at 11:13 AM.

Literacy Connection: Why Did I Become a Teacher?
http://literacyconnect.blogspot.com/2009/10/why-did-i-become-teacher.html
Connecting teachers with technology and classroom resources. Why Did I Become a Teacher? Someone in my PLN remarked this week, "We as teachers need to be responsible for our own PD." I couldn't agree more. We have to actively seek out professional growth opportunities and pursue best practices for teaching our kids. The problem is, how do we convince teachers to do this? Is this where the argument for incentive based pay comes from? We have the most important profession in the world in my opinion. No...

Literacy Connection: Where I Am....For Now
http://literacyconnect.blogspot.com/2009/10/where-i-amfor-now.html
Connecting teachers with technology and classroom resources. Where I Am.For Now. At a technology conference, I was introduced to Skype. And, by chance, Twitter. In the same session. I was immediately engaged by Skype and the possibilities for use in the classroom. I went home and started looking around for people who used Skype and stumbled across a Ning. Called Classroom 2.0. Through Twitter, I came across Syliva Tolisano's Around the World with 80 Schools. Posted by Tamra Lanning. Welcome to my blog!
