Thing # 6

Oh, my gosh! Such fun!!! I couldn't stop with just one site, but kept on looking. I started out with HairMixer. It was really fun, but without much educational purpose other than Cosmotology. I enjoyed playing around with it and came up with some pretty zany hairstyles! I do know that I will keep my hair long because I look like a boy with short hair. Next, I moved on to Biblio.com because I read about it on ParmentersPlace. I also found a book that I have been searching for at my favorite used book store, Paperbacks Plus, in downtown Mesquite. It was part of a trilogy that I have been waiting to read until I found book two, since I already had books one and three. I was very impressed with Lulu. It opened all sorts of possibilities of publishing a book or calendar. If I were teaching English, I would investigate that site a little more to see if it was feasible for class projects. But, my favorite site of all was Pandora. What a wonderful way to set up music for personal use and for the classroom! I can imagine having students do creative writing assignments to various types of music. You could play music to calm students down during testing. Art teachers could have students paint to various types of music. When school starts, I will set up music stations to play in my office while I am writing all of those reports! This was my favorite thing so far!!!
