Google Reader

I finished the assignment on Google reader. This is a very interesting way to communicate. This is actually a pretty neat idea. It will save you lots of searching time and instead it will send you information right to your mail account. I logged on and signed up for a my two required blogs and then even added a couple of my own. The two required blogs that I signed up for were, coolcatteacher.blogspot.com and mrrobbo.wordpress.com.

The coolcatteacher blog is a site that give you new and up to date ideas to use in milti-subjects in the classroom. Always helps to have new and fresh ideas.

The "mrrobbo" blog is a Physical Education (P.E.) site. Me being a P.E. teacher thought this would be an excellent site to view or get ideas on a daily basis. The latest blog on this site included the use of video games in the P.E. class. I know that it sounds bad to use video games but it really works. I have actually used them in my classes and the kids love them. I use Dance Dance revolution all the time and the new Wii games are great for keeping the kids moving. Really neat!!

I also signed up for the espn site and a couple other students blog sites in this class just to keep things interesting.

A blog syndication has information from websites sent to your mail accounts automatically. This saves you the time of actually hunting and actually just lets the information come to you.

RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication.
