Thing #10 - Fun With Fotos: On-line Image Geneators


Thanks to Captioner!
(Actually, Brenda wanted to say a lot more
like, "I'm on deadline; don't bother me!" But Captioner can't accommodate this beautiful, sexy, intelligent woman's words.  Nor could her speech bubble be attached to her picture frame.  She also deserves some color in her caption, but that couldn't be managed either.)






Meanwhile, my all-star
jersey 
arrived.

 Fancy font for fabulous fundamentals.




Now I can make Monopoly cards. 







The Tarot's Queen of Pentacles represents a solitary woman, who finds freedom associated with "prosperity and security", a caption added by me.  




 









P.S.  This week I attempted with three classes of seniors to have them prepare their presentations on Their Eyes on Google Docs.  Well, . . . what works at home, and what teachers say will work, runs into a multitude of road blocks at school.  Mostly, the firewalls prohibiting students from accessing their personal emails, and the schools' foot-dragging  to provide students with district emails, brought the G-Doc efforts to a grounding halt.  Hopefully, their efforts to set up accounts was successful and they will report to class on Monday, armed with passwords, ready to go again.  Those that made it through with g-mail accounts, shared with me, and I enjoyed viewing and commenting on their slides.  Fingers crossed for next week.

I work for LAUSD and was wondering how the firewalls would interfere with some of these activities. I know they are necessary, but it's too bad that they get in the way of the good stuff when they are trying to weed out the bad. Glad to see you're giving it a go though! It encourages me to try the same with my middle school students!

Thing #1 and Thing #2 and . . .

These are my reflections for an on-line "class" I'm taking in web 2.0.  The titles refer to assignments.
