Hi Christine, What a cute dog Benny is!! I enjoyed viewing your creation - I am sure it was a lot of fun to do this together with your husband. Your blog post has a lot of great examples that demonstrate how voicethreads can be used in the classroom. I am really excited about this new tool, and it's probably a good thing Joanne waited so long to introduce us to it, otherwise I might not have so readily explored the other tools out there.
I'm just a browser, not an educator. And so okay, at first, I thought this was silly and slow, but okay, okay, I admit, I confess, I was laughing. I did laugh. So it was a success. The intellectual part of the brain, is saying, oh, t-h-i-s is slow and silly, but the body is busy laughing. Congrats.
Below you will find links to a selection of my online activities over the last 5 years. Some of these were assignments for my MEd, some were created to facilitate PD sessions I presented, while others were created to assist me in my instructional endeavors as both a classroom teacher and a teacher-librarian.
I completed my MEd in Elementary Education with a specialization in Teacher-Librarianship in 2011. I am interested in many aspects of teaching, learning and leading, but specifically: school leadership, leadership roles of teachers and support staff, BYOD initiatives and mobile learning, inquiry based learning and creative approaches to planning performance based assessment projects through inquiry, technology integration and web 2.0 use in schools in conjunction with the school library, cross-curricular and cross-grade integration, teacher collaboration and co-teaching with learning specialists, and of course using the school library as a learning and teaching centre of the school. I am a full time teacher-librarian at a large junior high in Winnipeg, MB, Canada. I am also a wife and mother of two wonderful little girls

Hi Christine,
What a great collection of voicethreads and their applications! I will definitely be passing some of these along to my colleagues.
