Thing #7

I had fun with the wikispaces. Every Monday we have a reading meeting. Last Monday someone suggested that we put down rules for moving from tier III back to just tier II. I put some ideas on a wikispace and sent the links to everyone. Everyone else needs a little training on how to do it, but I can see the usefulness of this tool.

Thing #6

I think the Diggo is more for older students. I have been encouraging Jamie, my son, to explore it. He is a senior in high school and off to college next year and I think Diggo would be a very useful tool for term papers and other research.

Thing #5

I put together a custom search for some RtI sites that I have often used in the past. I think this is a great tool for teachers to be able to use for students. I can think of many ways I would have used it when I was teaching social studies and students were doing research. I am not sure how I would use it in my present position.

Thing #4

I have already been using googledocs some. I hadn't thought about it in terms of school before. I had just been using it for important documents that I would be lost without if my computer crashed. I am going to put DIBELS charts on mine and make them available to teachers that wish to check their students progress. Another great use of this would be to make other documents available to teachers. Forms for documentation of tier I, forms for refering students for RtI services...
