3rd Post

What a great 4th of July! I hope everyone had a great day and got to spend time with their families. I spent the day with my family at Omaha's Henry Doorly Zoo. At night, we barbecued and lit off a lot of fireworks. I hate the clean-up, but loved the show.

This week I have been trying to finish up the small parts of my Unit. I would like to have it all done by the end of this week. Last night, I completed a new scavenger hunt. I did not do the first scavenger hunt for my unit, so I had to make a new one. I made it as a review of skills needed to do an advanced search on Google (4 NETS for Better Searching techniques). I also made a quiz to assess my students knowledge of the same searching techniques on Google. Both items have been added to my UOW http://poster.4teachers.org/view/feature.php?id=196185.

Later this week, I will try to make 3 worksheets to help guide my students through different phases of the unit. I will also try to make a rubric to score my students presentations.

I no longer have any group work to do as my group turned in the paper last week. I would like to thank all of my group member as they were all great to work with and very organized. It sure made the experience easy.

Thanks,
Seth Ryser
