Thing No. 14

I used gliffy.com to create a flow chart on how to make cookies. This site was useful, but not very much fun. You could definitely use this in the classroom to teach flow charts, but I think students could do them by hand and have more fun. You can add color and different shape boxes, but that is about it. They do have a neat tab called floor plan where you can create a floor plan of a house or apartment. It has furniture and things you can set up to look like your own house or your dream house.

I used bubbl.us to create a mind map of ideas for integrating science and social studies curriculum. This is an assignment for another class. This site will probably very useful to me while working on the integration project. I like this because it allows you to write your thoughts down as they stem from other thoughts. I like this site, its cute and fun. It also allows you do play with your thoughts. Here is the mind map I just created.
