C4T #4 - Trails Optional

Mobile Blogging - Word of the Day
For this post the author was talking about her nephew wanting to start his own blog all on his own. She helped him set it up and it is up and running today, it is a blog that does a word of the day - one that he finds interesting and something that related to his day - and is accompanied by a picture.
I commented saying that I find it wonderful and fascinating that a 10 year old would want to start an educational blog alone when most want to use technology for only fun things.

In this post Jay Deyenberg talks about two games that have come out that can be used to help teach math in late primary and early middle school classes. You go on a mission in each of these games and you have to solve math problems to finish them.
I commented telling her that i thought the games were great as they would catch student attention and make them look forward to doing their work instead of looking at it as something that needed to be finished.
