I enjoyed reading your entries and the various strategies you have been trying (e.g. interactive notebooks, Polar Opposites etc.). Perhaps we can share some of the artifacts that go with themm next time (Olive Garden). I agree that podcasts are probably good driving time items but I also prefer visuals with the voice (e.g. slides and a voice over). Also agree that ELMOs offer a very useful way to display all sorts of information (e.g. wave forms in science).
As we get into the Mary McNabb book, we can examine some of the many websites she offers, along with issues related to reading Internet based text. See also work by Julie Coiro, Don Leu, and a great popular book, Wikinomics. It really gets at the collaborative nature of learning and creative production that our students will be part of (i.e. globalization but in the sense of developing world citizens).
Have a great super bowl weekend!
