Weebly Stage 1

So I had alot of trouble thinking of how to implement a weebly at my school. I thought about how I could do it with my kindergarteners, but there is a huge road block....
THERE ARE NO COMPUTERS IN MY CLASSROOM. We do not even have a computer lab. Also, not all my students have computers at home, so I would not want to make it an at-home project because everyone could not participate.
I know... it's awful. I have had to bring in my own iPAD and laptop to show my students the Animoto and digital story I created.
So, I thought of another idea... I will create a weebly for our PTIC committe (parent teacher involvement). I am in charge of emailing PTIC members to organize meetings and events. Wouldn't it be much easier to hae a website they can go to, get information, and share their own ideas for events and school activities.
My weebly has JUST been created... But I'd love advice on how to format it, especially since this is my first weebly. Let me know your thoughts/suggestions..... Thanks!      Mount Olive PTIC Website

Digital Story Done!

Check out what it's like to be young again! Watch my digital story about our kindergarten class.
I can't wait to show my students the final product- they'll love it! Also, the parents will enjoy seeing this during orientation.

"A Day in the Life of a Mount Olive Kindergartener!"


Thank you to my fellow grad students for their input on my rough draft. I listened to all your suggestions and it definately improved my video.

Creating Classroom Communication


Here is my first attempt at creating a GOOGLE FORM.... it was very easy! I thought this would be a great form that any teacher can put into their classroom webpage.

This form is geared towards a kindergarten classroom where the family members come in and drop off/ pick up the students.

Do you think you could use this in your classroom? What changes or add-ons can you suggest?
