Thing 14: Bitmoji Fun

Image
I love Bitmojis! I have one of myself in a Positivity Project t-shirt as you enter my classroom.  I think Bitmojis are very easy to use and I find it to be very user friendly.  I can see myself using these in multiple ways. My immediate thought is using them in the hallway to display student work. At the beginning of the year I have students make pictures of themselves to be displayed in the hallway all year.

I didn't see the point, but this time I tried it out. It was fairly easy and just required to me to click a button and then it showed up on my facebook as well.  I also explored the use of insta-stories. Insta-stories are something I enjoy watching but have never done one myself. It was super easy and fun! A feature that I use on twitter that I need to start using on instagram is tagging people and hash-tagging. Using a h

Thing 1: Getting Started

My name is Tori Sivers and I teach 1st grade at Van Buren Elementary in Baldwinsville, NY. I have been teaching for 9 years, 5 of those in Bville. I have only ever taught 1st grade and cannot see myself teaching anything else! I am taking Cool Tools for the 1st time. I was interested in taking this course because I want to incorporate more ways in which to include meaningful technology into my classroom. Being that I teach 1st grade, I struggle with knowing what a 1st grader can handle, technology wise, and am interested in learning more!
