I had the chance to make a statement for the June/ July 2007 publication, Cable in the Classroom, to answer the question, “Which websites that are popular with kids do you use in the classroom?” Check out the article here.

Digital Photo Contest for Kids
Just received notice about a contest for students! Check it out:
Technology & Learning invites K-12 students to participate in the sixth annual digital photography contest. The competition, open to all K-12 students, challenges you to capture – and share – your unique vision of the world in a “Digital Diary – Through My Lens.” If you have an artistic side, you also have the option to digitally enhance your photos with your favorite imaging software. The best digitally enhanced photo wins a special prize from Adobe. Other prizes include a digital camera, Adobe Photoshop Elements, and more!

Galapagos Trip (and blog)
One of my “bowling buddies” is currently on a trip to the Galapagos Islands, compliments of the website My Wonderful World. That’s right, she won the trip! It’s 10 days long, and she’s blogging about her adventures on her blog, Wandering the Wild. Since she is also an educator, she’s hoping that students and teachers will find it useful. Check it out–I’m sure she’d love to hear encouraging comments!
